What type of equipment would you recommend for drying and degassing the oil used in CT tubes?

For drying and degassing oil used in CT/X‑ray tubes I’d use a small-capacity oil purification unit that provides heat plus vacuum dehydration/degassing together with mechanical filtration — the CMM-0.4 or CMM-0.6 are specifically suited to X‑ray machine oil, removing dissolved moisture and gases and stripping particles to give the deep purification required for high-voltage insulation. After purification, use a dedicated vacuum oil filling/top‑up unit (UVD) for controlled, small‑volume vacuum filling of high‑voltage ports (typical workflows reference ~30 L preparation and ~4 L filling) to avoid entrapped air and ensure reliable dielectric performance.
If you need much higher throughput or are processing larger batches, step up to a CMM-15 degassing plant (about 15 m³/h capacity) which offers degassing, drying and filtration in a single unit. In all cases verify the oil’s moisture and dissolved gas content and perform a clean vacuum fill under controlled conditions to protect CT/X‑ray tube HV insulation and maximize reliability.
