Company achieves industry's first dual J1939/J1979 certification and first 3-in-1 telematics + ELD + CARB Clean Truck Check solution
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. , Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Pacific Track, a leading provider of hardware devices and related technologies to the telematics and ELD (electronic logging device) industries, announced today that its PT40 product is the first and currently only device to receive both J1939 and J1979 (OBD-II) certification as a remote on-board testing device in the California Air Resources Board's (CARB) Clean Truck Check (CTC) program. It is also the first and currently only one to offer telematics, ELD, and CTC all in one box.
The CTC initiative aims to reduce air pollution by implementing a comprehensive heavy-duty vehicle inspection and maintenance (HD I/M) regulation. As a certified "continuously connected device", the PT40 can be used for automatic, over-the-air (OTA) emissions monitoring, which provides significant cost and time savings for fleet operators since it eliminates the need to take vehicles to testing facilities or to build an expensive in-house testing program.
"When our customers asked us to obtain CARB certification, we didn't realize what a big task and complex process it would be", said Bernard Debbasch, CEO of Pacific Track. "But we are certainly pleased with the result of this work, both for the benefit to customers and for its positive impact on the environment in general."
Debbasch added: "Having telematics, ELD, and CARB Clean Truck Check all in one device, both for J1939 and J1979 vehicles, is a very attractive package for fleet operators, and we hope they can take full advantage of this entire suite of capabilities. That said, for those operators that want to keep a different telematics device that is already installed, they can still install the PT40 for Clean Truck Check since the CARB feature operates independently of any telematics platform."
Pacific Track products, including already available CTC-compliant PT40 devices, are integrated with dozens of leading ELD hours of service (HOS) applications and telematics platforms and are sold through a network of solution providers in the US, Canada, and Mexico.

Pacific Track sells its devices through a network of solution providers and other resellers and does not sell directly to end users or fleets. For sales information, solution providers can contact Dan Rothman, VP of Sales & Marketing, email [email protected].
