Spectrophotometry of the common proper motion pairs ES0439-162/163 and ESO440-55a/55b shows that the first is formed by an mv =18.8 magnetic DQ white dwarf and an mv = 19.8 DC9 white dwarf separated by 23”. ESO440-55a/55b has an mv = 20.2 red dwarf (ST=M5.1) component and a DZ7 white dwarf with mv = 19.3, their angular separation being The proper motion of the pairs is μ=0.38±0.03”/year and μ=0.22±0.04”/year respectively.
