CHECK VALVES
Industrial Check Valves: WHEATLEY and Tom Wheatley
WHEATLEY
Series 500
The Cameron WHEATLEY Series 500 check valve is a fire-tested carbon steel flanged end check valve with a full-open, through-conduit design for low pressure drop and less turbulence. The valve’s flanges are back-faced. This is an extra manufacturing step that provides smoother bolting surfaces and even bolt loading.

Tom Wheatley
Piston Check
Due to a unique non-slam design, the Cameron TOM WHEATLEY piston check valve has provided years of uninterrupted service downstream from reciprocating pumps and compressors, and in other applications where conventional check valve designs would be subjected to excessive wear.

WHEATLEY
Series 822
The Cameron WHEATLEY Series 822 check valve is designed to safely prevent backflow of liquid or gas in pipeline applications. The valve’s beveled, self-aligning clapper and seat design incorporates a molded seal in the clapper for a bubble-tight primary seal and metal-to-metal secondary seal.
