The Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility, (CE-BAF) is undergoing construction in Newport News, Virginia. When completed in 1994, the accelerator will be the largest in stallation of radio frequency superconductivity. Production of cryomodules, the fundamental cryogenic building block of the machine, has started. They consist of four sets of a pair of 1497 MHz, 5-cell cavities contained in separate helium vessels and mounted in a cryostat with appropriate end caps for helium supply and return. RF, heat load, and mechanical pcrformance of the first unit tested and status of the project will be discussed.
