Emission Control Norms (CPCB)
Stringent Emissions Regulations and Challenges
CPCB website from time to time by one of the four Central Pollution Control Board, Govt of India, recognized /approved laboratories as given below:
- Automotive Research Association of India, Pune (Maharashtra)
- International Centre for Automotive Technology, Manesar (Haryana)
- Indian Institute of Petroleum, Dehradun (Uttarakhand)

5-Mode Constant Speed Cycle (D2 Steady-state discrete mode test cycle specified in ISO-8178)
Particulate matter emission from DG sets needs to be reduced by 70% from the existing emission level of the DG set
Why Emission Control Matters
A Global Health Crisis in the Air
The Hidden Impact of Industrial and Vehicle Emissions
Smarter Solutions for Cleaner Air
Technology That Filters Harmful Emissions
Our Retrofit Emission Control Devices reduce particulate matter and pollutants, enhancing air quality and fighting climate change.
Cleaner Engines. Greener Tomorrow.
Our Diesel Engines and Engineering Services also help lower emissions and support a sustainable future.
By prioritising emission control, Platino is not just adhering to regulations but is actively working towards a cleaner, healthier planet for all.

OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) Control Panel
The RECD OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) Panel is a specialized control and monitoring interface integrated with Retrofit Emission Control Devices for diesel generator (DG) sets. It enables real-time diagnostics, performance tracking and regulatory compliance verification—especially under CPCB norms for particulate matter (PM), CO and HC reduction.
-
Pressure & Temperature Sensors
Installed upstream and downstream of the RECD to monitor differential pressure and thermal behaviour. -
Data Acquisition Module
Captures sensor data and transmits it to the control panel or remote server. -
OBD-II Interface (or custom protocol)
Facilitates diagnostics and fault code retrieval, often customized for DG applications. -
IIoT Connectivity
Enables remote monitoring, data logging and predictive maintenance via cloud platforms. -
Display & Control Unit
May include LCD/LED indicators or touchscreens for local status visualization and manual overrides. -
Emission Monitoring
Tracks backpressure trends and temperature thresholds to ensure RECD health. -
Fault Detection & Alerts
Generates Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) for sensor failures, clogging, or abnormal operating conditions. -
Compliance Reporting
Supports CPCB-mandated data logging for audit trails and type approval testing. -
Remote Diagnostics
Through IIoT, stakeholders can access live data, historical trends and system health from any location. -
Integration with BMS/SCADA
Optional compatibility with broader building or plant management systems for centralized control. -
DG Sets with RECD (up to 800 kW)
Especially in non-attainment cities where CPCB mandates retrofitting for air quality improvement. -
Industrial & Commercial Facilities
Ensures emission compliance without disrupting operations. -
Field Testing & Validation
Useful during ARAI/ICAT certification and COP development tests. -
CPCB Type Approval
Panels must support RECD certified under CPCB Phase I & II norms.
