Electrode feedthru having pin attached to wire therein and method of manufacturing

A feedthru assembly for an electrolytic device, the feedthru comprising:

• a ferrule having a bore, the bore having a reduced diameter portion forming a shoulder;
• an electrode assembly positioned within the ferrule, the electrode assembly comprising:
• an electrode wire comprising a first portion and a second portion;
• and
• a pin comprising a first terminal and a second terminal, the first terminal attached to the first portion of the electrode wire to form a connected portion of the electrode assembly, the connected portion being positioned within the bore of the ferrule, the second portion of the electrode wire extending out from the ferrule in a direction away from the pin;
• and
• an elastomer disposed in the bore of the ferrule between the ferrule and the electrode assembly, the elastomer configured to electrically isolate the ferrule from the electrode assembly and to encapsulate at least the connected portion of the electrode assembly, the shoulder of the ferrule extending into the elastomer.
