  The KEKB-type single-cell 500-MHz superconducting radio frequency (SRF) modules have been selected to power the 3 GeV, 500 mA, storage ring of the constructing Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) at National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC). The design target is to routinely deliver RF forward power up to 300 kW, CW, to single SRF module with highly reliable operation. Three sets of SRF modules have been successfully produced under a tight collaboration with High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. (MHI), after obtaining the technology transfer from KEK. MHI is responsible for the mechanical fabrication and cryo-module assembly, KEK for the surface and RF treatments of the niobium cavities, high power input couplers and HOM dampers and for the liquid-helium tests of the cryo-modules, and NSRRC for the electronic/diagnostic system, final assembly and system integration, high power horizontal test, and reliable test. This work reports the results obtained during the production of these three SRF modules at KEK and NSRRC.

  The Cornell-type 500-MHz SRF module has been routinely operated since the end of 2004 to power the 1.5 GeV Taiwan Light Source with 360 mA in top-up mode. A new record of SRF operation with mean time between failures (MTBF)up to 800 hr has been achieved in the 1st half of 2013 that is compatible with the best operational record of room temperature cavities ever made in the same machine. To meet the user’s strict requirements on highly operational reliability, developing in advanced diagnostic instrumentation together with user-friendly event logging software does never stop. Here, we review our SRF operational experience in last 9 years.
