Abstract
We describe the facility for RPC test with cosmic rays, designed and built at the laboratory of INFN and University of Naples. Trigger and tracking systems consist of a scintillator hodoscope and two drift chambers with track reconstruction resolution of similar to400 mum. Trigger is provided by the twofold coincidence of scintillators covering a surface of 1 m(2). Two step motors move chambers synchronously along the station for RPC scanning. Up to eight RPCs can be tested simultaneously. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.
