  UKRI-STFC Daresbury Laboratory is currently undertaking several projects involving assembly of superconducting RF cryomodules, including HL-LHC crab cavities and PIP-II HB650 cavities. As part of the final acceptance tests before shipping of the modules, extensive leak testing, pressure testing, and thermal cycling with gaseous and liquid must be performed. A Final Acceptance Test kit (FAT-kit) has been developed to support these tests. The FAT-kit, designed as a single portable unit, sits as an interface module between the cryomodule under test and the required utilities (liquid cryogen supply and return, gaseous cryogen supply and return, warm gas supply and return, vacuum pumps, leak detectors, etc.). The kit features a valve manifold to make or break connections to, from, and between circuits in the cryomodule, safety groupings to provide protection for the circuits as required, and various instrumentation. We report here on the design and commissioning of the kit.
