  We investigate transport properties of a double quantum dot based Cooper pair
splitter, where the superconducting lead consists of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$. The
proposed device can be used to explore the symmetry of the superconducting
order parameter in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ by testing the presence of gapless chiral edge
states, which are predicted to exist if the bulk superconductor is described by
a chiral $p$--wave state. The odd orbital symmetry of the bulk order parameter
ensures that we can realize a regime where the electrons tunneling into the
double dot system come from the chiral edge states and thereby leave their
signature in the conductance. The proposed Cooper pair splitter has the
potential to probe order parameters in unconventional superconductors.
