Try this:

val tocks = Array("EC-17A5206955089011B","EC-17A5206955089011A")

val rddAll = sc.parallelize(List("This contains EC-17A5206955089011B","This
doesnt"))

rddAll.filter(line => {
     var found = false
     for(item <- tocks){
    if(line.contains(item)) found = true
     }
    found
      }).collect()


Output:
res8: Array[String] = Array(This contains EC-17A5206955089011B)

Thanks
Best Regards
