The new /ΔE/E detection system, calorimeter telescope (CATE), for charge and mass determination of heavy ions at high energies (>=100 MeV/n) has been designed. CATE, a calorimeter telescope will consist of position sensitive Si detectors for /ΔE determination and scintillators, readout by either PIN diode or PMT, for total-/E determination. Different scintillation detectors were tested with 130Sn, 186Pb, 197Au and 238U beams of (100-300) MeV/n ion energy. By properly selecting the beam species from the FRS and applying position corrections, an energy resolution of /~=0.5% FWHM was observed. The corresponding mass resolution of 1/200 is adequate for employment of CATE in the Fast Beam RISING campaign at GSI.
