  Cryo-losses measurements of the XFEL prototype and pre-series cryomodules are here presented and compared with the XFEL requirements. Cryo-losses at the 4.5 K, 80 K and 2K temperatures are calculated during the test period at CMTB (CryoModule Test Bench) at DESY to qualify the cryomodules before installation. This paper summarizes the test procedure for the different circuits (2K, 4.5K, 80K) and in different load conditions: static losses, losses due to the magnet and dynamic losses due to the RF power sent to the cavities at different MV/m levels.

  The European X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL) is currently under construction in Germany in Hamburg area. A linear accelerating part of the XFEL is going to consist of 808 superconducting 9-cell Niobium cavities installed in 101 accelerating modules. Before assembly into modules the cavities are tested in a dedicated test facilities. The testing procedures are prepared based on DESY expertise and available software from Tesla Test Facility (TTF) Collaboration and Free electron LASer for Hamburg (FLASH). RF test provides the most important information about cavity performance: maximum available gradient and dependence of quality factor and radiation on the gradient. Results of the RF test determine, whether a cavity is shipped to CEA Saclay (France) to be assembled into a module or send for retreatment to improve its performance. In this paper we present the most important aspects of the cavity RF test procedure.

  The European X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL) is currently under construction in Germany in Hamburg area. A 2.1 km long superconducting linear accelerator, part of the XFEL, consists of 101 accelerating cryomodules. The XFEL cryomodule is assembled with eight superconducting RF cavities, one cold magnet and Beam Position Monitor (BPM). The cryomodules are tested in dedicated test facility before installation in the XFEL tunnel. The testing procedures for the cryomodules were prepared with use of DESY expertise from TTF (Tesla Test Facility) Collaboration and FLASH (Freie-Elektronen-Laser in Hamburg). This paper describes the full set of testing procedure and incoming and outgoing inspections as well.
