  LCLS-II linac is based on XFEL/ILC superconducting technology, but CW regime of operation requires the modification of components to satisfy LCLS-II requirements. TTF-III coupler is considered as a candidate for a fundamental power coupler for the 1.3 GHz 9-cell accelerating structure at the LCLS-II project. In this paper we discuss the results of multiphysics analysis of the coupler working at various operating regimes. Two major modifications are proposed in order to meet the LCLS-II requirements and eliminate possible overheating: reducing the length of antenna (cold part) and increasing the thickness of a cooper plating on the inner conductor of the warm part of the coupler.
