  At DESY several cavity strings for modules of the FLASH accelerator and studies on XFEL prototypes are completed. In some modules cavities have been exchanged for upgrade of applicable module gradients or exchange of resonators showing performance degradation in the module test. Assembly and repair sequences and quality control plans for cavity string are developed and applied. From module string PXFEL3 six out of eight cavities are removed and handed over to CEA Saclay for training of string and module assembly. On two of these cavities the procedures for assembly and exchange of cavities in cavity strings are crosschecked. These cavities are tested at 2 K as removed from string without additional treatments to cross check assembly and repair sequences.

  In the last decade the degradation of cavity acceleration gradients is observed frequently in module RF tests, after the assembly and installation of complete accelerator modules. In some cases no explanation for these degradations could be found from quality control records, assembly procedure protocols or notes from observers. On the PXFEL3 module quench limitations without indication of field emission loading is observed at two cavities. Boundary conditions like storage of resonators, cleaning process for ISO 4 clean room as well as the assembly processes and handling of the resonators are under investigation. The two degraded cavities of module PXFEL 3 are removed from the cavity string and studied intensively. The actual status of our research is presented.

  S1-Global collaborative project by joint efforts of INFN, DESY, FNAL, SLAC and KEK, finished successfully at KEK- STF on February in 2011, is a crucial project for ILC. For this project, 8 SRF cavities, 2 from DESY, 2 from FNAL and 4 from KEK, were installed into one cryomodule with the thermal shields and the cooling pipes of liquid helium and nitrogen, cooled down to 2K totally three times, and cold-tested by using the three different frequency tuning systems (Blade tuner from INFN/FNAL, Saclay tuner from DESY and Slide-Jack tuner from KEK) and two types of input couplers (TTF III from DESY and STF#2 from KEK). During the cold test with high power, cavity performance, LFD (Lorentz Force Detuning) compensation by Piezo actuator, simultaneous 7 SRF cavities operation, dynamic heating loss measurement including static loss and DRFS (Distributed RF Scheme) operation with LLRF (Low Level RF) feedback system, were established successfully. In this talk, the results of the S1-Global cryomodule test are reported, discussed and summarized.
