Abstract The CLARA High Repetition Rate Photoinjector comprises an S-band dual feed cavity and will operate at a repetition rate of up to 400 Hz and is capable of reaching an electric field strength on the cathode of 120 MV/m. The cavity was brazed after tuning and arrived at Daresbury Laboratory in February 2016. Extensive low power RF testing has been performed including measurements of the quality factors and coupling, pass-band mode frequencies, on axis field and RF repeatability of replacement of cathode plug. The dual feed coupler has been tuned and a Magic Tee type splitter installed. The photoinjector is now installed on the VELA beam line for commissioning and characterisation.
