LQC couplings
OCP (Open Compute Project) Liquid cooling Dry break
The Large Quick Connector (LQC) for data center applications is developed within the OCP (Open Compute Project) initiative, an initiative that has established a new global standard within the data center industry community for quick connect couplings. Screw-to-connect locking mechanism, effortless connection even under working pressure up to 5 bar, double redundant O-ring seal for extra leak prevention are just some of the features that makes this coupling solution ideal for Data Center Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs).
Technical data
| Nominal flow diameter (mm) | 19 mm |
| Max working pressure (bar) | 12 bar |
| Material coupling | Stainless steel (AISI 303) |
Interchangeable coupling solution for data center CDU connections
The OCP LQC is an interchangeable coupling solution specially designed for Coolant Distribution Units (CDU), developed within the OCP initiative. As most CDUs require users to connect and disconnect their quick connect couplings during operation, the screw-to-connect operation of OCP LQC provides better usability than the push-to-connect type quick connect couplings as this can be done while being under working pressure up to 5 bar.
As an open standard, any manufacturer’s products are connectable by following the specifications of the LQC standard. With CEJN high precision manufacturing and long experience in high-quality quick disconnect couplings for various applications, our LQC quick couplings are guaranteed to meet and exceed the standard specifications.

CEJN - one of the developers of the OCP LQC standard
The OCP LQC is initiated by Meta and CEJN is one of the manufacturers behind the standard development. CEJN has been involved in OCP projects from the conceptual phase through testing to fostering collaboration among coupling manufacturers within the OCP initiative. With all the necessary competence and resources in-house, we maintain full control over the complete supply chain, from the designing phase, testing, and production to delivery.
