Better combustion control means improved process control, and this in return gives you greater management over energy costs. This is why Oldham's PAN series could play a vital role in analysing and protecting your environment. The PAN series consists of portable gas analysers, available in a range of mobile measuring instruments. These devices are cost-effective, reliable, accurate and able to adapt to all fuels: solid, liquid or gaseous. Oldham has designed a full range of gas analysers, each with their own features:
The PAN 1500 analyser
This model is light, easy to handle and serves as an ideal measuring tool for heating specialists. Some of its beneficial features are:
* Six pre-programmed fuels and one programmable fuel.
* Simultaneous display of eight measured values.
* A storage capacity of up to 250 values.
* Designed for the measurement of O2 ,CO, CO2c and NO.
The PAN 1400 analyser
This portable gas analyser is suitable to inspect boiler, burner and engine combustion. It has an integrated printer and provides rapid measurements of all-important parameters. Its special features include:
* Measurement of O2, CO, CO2c, NO, as well as soot spot determination.
* Seven pre-programmed and five programmable fuels.
* Simultaneous viewing of eight parameters on an illuminated display.
* A storage capacity of 220 measurements.
The PAN 2000 analyser
This analyser not only measures O2, CO, NO, SO2, NO2, CxHy, but also air and gas temperature. Features include:
* 23 Pre-programmed and four programmable fuels.
* Simultaneous viewing of six parameters on an illuminated display.
* An integrated memory that includes the breakdown of values, all transferable to a PC or external printer.
* Rechargeable battery.
The PAN 3000 analyser
This high-technology portable system includes a gas sampling probe with integrated NiCr-Ni thermocouple. Its features are:
* An accurate measurement of O2, CO, NO, SO2, NO2, H2S, CxHy, air temperature, gas temperature, draught, soot, CO2 and excess air.
* 18 Pre-programmed fuels and four programmable fuels.
* Simultaneous viewing of all measuring parameters on an illuminated display.
* Integrated printer with possible graphic representation.
* Integrated memory.
Another extra is the PAN 600, which can be used as a high-performance gas treatment system, in combination with any range in the PAN series.
You can do everything right and still get breached
Editor's Choice Information Security AI & Data Analytics
A particularly nasty truth sits at the centre of cybersecurity in 2026. You can do everything right and still lose if the organisation holding your identity number, banking information, medical history, or biometric data gets breached.

Analytical Instrumentation & Environmental Monitoring
As South Africa prepares for a transition from declining Mozambican natural gas to a proposed methane-rich bridge, LNG, industrial users can no longer assume a constant Wobbe Index and calorific value. The compact RMG RGQ 5 provides fast, plant-level gas-quality data to support approved burner and engine settings.
