	Funding: Supported by NSF award DMR-0807731 Cornell University has developed and fabricated a SCRF injector cryomodule for the acceleration of high current, low emittance CW beams. This cryomodule is based on superconducting RF technology with five 2-cell SRF cavities operated in CW mode. Strong Higher-Order-Mode (HOM) damping and high power RF input couplers support accelerating beam currents of tens of mA. The cryomodule is currently under extensive testing in the Cornell ERL injector prototype with CW beam currents exceeding 25 mA. This paper gives an overview of the experience gained during the high beam current operation of the cryomodule, with a focus on the intrinsic cavity quality factors, input coupler performance, and HOM damping.
