Abstract
The stringent requirements of the KLOE experiment on dimensions, effic iency, resolution and transparency of its drift chamber led to buildin g a tracking device which can be considered innovative from many point s of view. Details of the design and construction of this detector, to gether with preliminary results from the test of its full scale protot ype, constructed and operated under a test beam at CERN, are presented and discussed.
