The ICT A6E is the current generation of ICT's flagship upstack validator and the direct replacement for the older A6 series. It is one of the most widely installed acceptors in amusement, gaming, kiosk, and vending equipment in North America, and it is the unit most of our customers standardize on for new builds.
Every A6E configuration is defined by its part number. Reading A6E-25NCP-USD4 left to right: the first digit is voltage (1 = 110V, 2 = 12V), the second digit is stacker capacity (3 = 300 note, 5 = 500 note, 8 = 800 note), the next letter is bezel style (S = standard, N = downstack, F = fitted), and USD4 is the four-denomination US currency set accepting $1, $5, $10, and $20. That means an A6E-15FCP-USD4 and an A6E-25NCP-USD4 are not interchangeable, even though both are A6E units. We also stock -II and -IP variants and a TTD build for Trinidad and Tobago.
Replacing an existing unit? Match voltage, stacker capacity, and bezel style to what is already in the cabinet, then confirm the interface. If you are coming off an older A6, see our A6 Series page for the A6E cross-reference.
Common questions about the ICT A6E
- What does USD4 mean? Four US denominations: $1, $5, $10, and $20.
- Which bezel do I need? Standard for flush faceplates, downstack where the cashbox sits below the head, and fitted for OEM cabinet cutouts. Match what is already installed.
- Does the A6E replace the A6? Yes, it is the direct successor and current production.
- 110V or 12V? Check the harness in your cabinet rather than the machine's wall plug. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
