For the European XFEL project horizontal multi-beam klystrons will be installed in the XFEL tunnel and will be connected to the double tank pulse transformers. Both, the klystron and pulse transformer need for the normal operation to be filled with oil. To avoid the possible oil leakage during connection of the klystron and transformer tank inside tunnel, the connection module (CM) was proposed. The CM will be mounted on the support platform of the klystron and through the tube socket connected to the guns electrodes outside of the tunnel and will transported to the tunnel together with klystron. The connection to the pulse transformer tank will be done only with HV cable, because the CM has inside it the filament transformer. To reduce the weight and volume of the oil the design of filament transformer was done as high frequency coaxial one with coupling factor of 0.58 and working frequency about 1 kHz. The CM has the built-in current and voltage monitors. In this paper we give an overview about design and test result of the CM together with klystron.
