Abstract The FREIA Laboratory at Uppsala University, Sweden, is developing part of the RF system and testing the superconducting double spoke cavitites for ESS. During 2014 it was equipped with HNOSS, a versatile horizontal cryostat system for testing superconducting cavities. HNOSS is designed for high power RF testing of up to two superconducting accelerating cavities equipped with helium tank, fundamental power coupler and tuning system. In particular it will be used to characterise the performance of spoke cavities like used in the accelerator for the ESS project. HNOSS is connected to a cryogenic plant providing liquid helium and a sub-atmospheric pumping system enabling operation in the range 1.8 to 4.5~K. We present a brief description of the major components, installation and results from the recent operation and tests.
