AQI Sensor for DPCC — CPCB-Listed PM2.5 & PM10 Monitoring
If you have searched for an AQI sensor for DPCC, you are usually one inspection away from an Environmental Compensation notice. We supply, install and integrate CPCB-listed ambient air quality monitors that push PM2.5 and PM10 readings straight into the DPCC Dust Portal 2.0 against your project ID — typically within forty-eight hours of your call.
The phrase builders type into Google is almost always the same: AQI sensor for DPCC. What they actually need is narrower than a generic dust monitor. DPCC accepts data only from sensors made by manufacturers on the CPCB list, calibrated inside the last twelve months, and pushing readings through the official API against the project ID that was created when the site was registered. A perfectly good sensor bought off a marketplace and mounted on a pole satisfies none of those three conditions, which is why we get so many calls from sites that already own hardware.
Our scope on a DPCC AQI sensor installation covers the whole chain. We survey the plot to pick a mounting point three to four metres above ground, clear of anti-smog gun spray and truck exhaust, with reliable mobile coverage at that exact coordinate. We install the unit in a weatherproof enclosure with surge protection, dual-operator SIMs and an anti-theft cage. Then we configure the API push to the DPCC central server and confirm the live reading appears on the portal before we leave.
Sites above 500 sqm in Delhi need this under CAQM Direction No. 85 and the Dust Portal 2.0 rules; the same equipment satisfies HSPCB requirements in Gurugram, Faridabad, Sonipat, Panipat and Karnal, and RSPCB requirements in Bhiwadi, Neemrana and Alwar, because all three boards accept CPCB-listed continuous ambient monitors. If you need the sensor for a fixed project duration rather than outright, we rent the same units monthly with installation and uptime monitoring included.
After commissioning, our monitoring desk watches uptime around the clock. When a unit drops offline, an engineer is dispatched the same day instead of waiting for a DPCC complaint, and the annual maintenance contract covers calibration certificates, consumables and component replacement.

Our process
- 01
Requirement call
We confirm plot area, DPCC project ID and whether you need purchase or monthly rental of the AQI sensor.
- 02
Site survey
Mounting point, power source and network coverage checked so readings are defensible during inspection.
- 03
Install & integrate
Sensor mounted, enclosure sealed, and API push configured against your DPCC Dust Portal 2.0 account.
- 04
Verification & AMC
Live PM2.5/PM10 reading verified on the portal, calibration certificate handed over, AMC activated.
Frequently asked
Which AQI sensor does DPCC approve?
DPCC accepts continuous ambient air quality monitors from CPCB-listed manufacturers with a calibration certificate not older than twelve months. We supply only such models and register the device against your project ID on the Dust Portal 2.0.
Do I need an AQI sensor if my site is under 500 sqm?
Registration and continuous monitoring are mandatory for Delhi C&D sites of 500 sqm and above. Smaller sites are not required to install a sensor, though dust screens, water sprinkling and covered storage still apply.
Can I rent an AQI sensor instead of buying it?
Yes. Monthly rental includes installation, DPCC integration, calibration and uptime monitoring, and we de-install once the project is complete.
How fast can the sensor go live on the DPCC portal?
For most Delhi NCR sites we survey, install and show a live reading on the DPCC dashboard within forty-eight hours of confirmation.
