An electron linear accelerator based on parallel coupled accelerating structure was developed and produced by Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics SB RAS and Institute of Chemical Kinetics and Combustion SB RAS. Short and long versions of the accelerating structure at 2450 MHz were built. For easy disassembly electrical and vacuum connections of the first (short) structure were made using indium seals. The second structure was brazed. Now the accelerator is in operation and used to study the accelerating and RF technologies. In the report the features of the accelerator are presented, including the design and characteristics of RF antenna and solid-state switch for the electron gun. Test results of the long parallel coupled accelerating structure are discussed. Observations made on the short structure surface after it had been opened are depicted. Now the short structure undergoes certain modifications in order to accelerate higher beam currents.
