DPA Inspect

Your Source for CARB Compliance

DPA Inspect and DPA XL are your approved

inspection tools for Clean Truck Check success.

Simple and Secure Testing with DPA Inspect

DPA Inspect makes it easy for technicians to determine the health of a vehicle’s emissions control system by performing and submitting the inspection and maintenance testing required for Clean Truck Check compliance using our secure software and trusted DPA diagnostics tools.

CARB Clean Truck Check

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) Clean Truck Check program was established to ensure that all vehicles maintain their emissions control systems to reduce pollution and improve air quality. Beginning in January 2025, heavy-duty vehicles operating in California will face penalties if they fail to pass regular inspections administered by credentialed testers with tools approved for use in the Clean Truck Check program.

Your Source for CARB Compliance

At DG Technologies, we’re here to help you pass inspections and avoid penalties with our CARB-certified tools. Our secure DPA Inspect Windows application works in conjunction with our DPA XL or DPA 5 PRO devices to easily connect your computer to a vehicle and extract and encrypt the necessary data to send to CARB.
