CX Draconis /HD 174237, B2.5Ve, v.sin i = 160 km.s-1/ is a typical Be star displaying most of the well known spectroscopic and photometric characteristics of these stars.
Koubský /1978/ disclosed that CX Dra is a SB1 /P=6.69603d, K = 35 km.s-1, e = 0/. Penrod /1985/ confirmed that the secondary is a F star. Peters and Polidan /1984/ reported strong, variable lines of NV, CIV and SilV from high-resolution spectra secured with IUE satellite. These features were interpreted to arise from gas stream and accretion close to the photosphere of the B-component of the system.
