The SRF-Gun development at FZD has made lot of progress. The installation of the injector module next to the linear accelerator ELBE was finished in September 2007. The cavity characteristics measured during the following commissioning are presented here. On-Axis Field Distribution 9th test after high power processing (HPP) up to E peak =25MV/m results in stable CW operation up to 17.6MV/m, above this level cavity starts to quench maximum achievable field only 1/3 of the designed value of E peak =50MV/m measured Q 0 is 10 times lower than in all vertical tests no Q degradation found during the 1 st year of operation first eight Q vs. E measurements limited by FE & He consumption Q 0 vs. E peak Tuning System Microphonics Microphonics (closed loop σ = 0.055° rms) comparable to ELBE & sufficient for CW CW Lorentz Force Detuning The resolution and the tuning span of both tuners are sufficient but the hysteresis has to be improved within the next maintenance! No problems during 2K cooldown Frequency shift same as expected from TESLA cells But 380kHz to high because change of ∆ε r not considered pressure sensibility (230Hz/mBar) is seven times higher than known from ELBE modules which is probably caused by different cavity design (weak half cell) no problem seen for the LL controller and max. available RF Power due to helium pressure stability of 0.1mbar Pressure Sensibility damped membrane pumps Helium refrigerator 63.1% 100% 96.6% 97.0% electrical field distribution along cavity axis for E z,max =50MV/m desired field flatness: [0.6 - 1 – 1 – 1]
