The SPIRAL 2 project, to be built in GANIL, consists of a 40 MeV linear accelerator for 5 mA of deuterons and a target-source complex for the production of exotic isotopes. The accelerator is also optimised to accelerate q/A = 1/3 ion up to 14.4 MeV/u. The three stages of the linac are a RFQ (up to 0.75 MeV/A), a low beta (0.007) and a high beta (0.12) sections consisting of quarter-wave, 88 MHz superconducting resonators. This paper focuses on the low beta cavity and its cryomodule. The cavity nominal accelerating gradient is at least 6.5 MV/m in operation conditions. RF properties of the cavities are dealt with, as well as the mechanical ones: helium pressure effects, tunability, vibrations. The cryomodule is designed so as to save longitudinal space and therefore is partly assembled in clean room.
