Abstract: The BESⅢ experiment uses about 1200m2 of resistive plate chambers(RPCs), which will all be tested in a cosmic test station before installation. The test facility is made of 3 streamer-tube chambers with a track reconstruction resolution of 2—3mm. Trigger is also provided by the streamer-tube chambers covering an area of 4m2. A total of 8 RPCs can be tested simultaneously.
