Abstract：
The performances of monitored drift tube chambers for the ATLAS experiment are studied with cosmic rays. The main features of the chamber and the test facilities are described briefly. The criteria and test procedures for the BEE chambers are presented, including the dark current, the noise level, the drift time spectra, the charge distribution and the relative efficiency. The results are within the specifications required by ATLAS.
