Phase I of the Soreq Applied Research Accelerator Facility - SARAF is under operation at the Soreq Nuclear Research Center. According to Phase I design specifications, SARAF superconducting linear RF accelerator should yield 2 mA protons and deuterons CW beams at energies up to 4 and 5 MeV, respectively. The status of Phase I main components is reported as well as the beam operation experience accumulated recently. The latter include acceleration of a 1 mA CW protons beam up to 3.5 MeV and 1 mA pulsed, duty cycle of few %, deuterons beam to up to 4.7 MeV. Further planned improvements in the current facility and plans for the future Phase II of the SARAF linac are discussed.
