Features:
- IC600BF832 accepts 32 field inputs at 115 VAC.
- Four isolated groups keep eight inputs on each user source.
- Individual LEDs show the state of all 32 input points.
IC600BF832 occupies 32 consecutive input references and divides the field connections into four independent eight-point groups.
Documented switching limits distinguish a valid 80–132 VAC ON signal from a 0–30 VAC OFF condition, with bounded transition delays for stable discrete control.
Its faceplate accepts one No. 12 AWG conductor per input, while the module’s DIP switches establish the starting references used by the controller.
Apter Power can quote and source the General Electric IC600BF832 32-Point 115 VAC Input Module, provide the applicable manufacturer documentation, and assist with configuration and replacement planning for Series Six Plus installations.

Series Six Plus rack and CPU compatibility
- Platform: IC600BF832 installs in a Series Six Plus I/O rack or in the I/O section of a Series Six Plus CPU rack.
- Reference allocation: The controller reserves 32 consecutive input references for the four groups of eight points.
- Address setup: On-board DIP switches establish the references assigned to the first input group.
- Field devices: The manufacturer documentation lists limit, proximity, cam, and toggle switches among suitable input devices.
Cabinet temperature and humidity limits
- Operating temperature: The documented ambient range is 0 to 60 °C outside the rack.
- Relative humidity: The module is specified for 5 to 95% non-condensing humidity.
- Field-voltage range: An input is recognized as ON from 80 to 132 VAC and OFF from 0 to 30 VAC.
- Installation context: Apply the environmental ratings at the module location inside the industrial cabinet.
Monitoring 32 field-input states
- Point indication: A faceplate LED provides a direct visual indication for each input point.
- Group organization: Four sets of eight indicators correspond to the module’s four isolated input groups.
- Controller status: Each conditioned field signal is presented to its assigned Series Six Plus input reference.
- Signal checks: LED state and the corresponding input reference can be compared during commissioning or troubleshooting.
Input isolation and noise protection
- Signal path: Each input passes through an AC divider, common-mode noise filter, opto-isolator, and Schmitt trigger.
- Group isolation: The 32 points are arranged as four independently isolated groups of eight.
- State margin: Separate ON and OFF voltage bands prevent low residual voltage from being treated as a valid command.
- Transition filtering: Defined response delays help reject brief field disturbances before the controller state changes.
