- Ø1-Ø8 mm cable range
- Ø4-Ø18 mm duct range
- Up to 1,000 m
- Up to 15 bar
- Up to 90 m/min
ElektroFOK Electric Cable Blowing Machine Overview
ElektroFOK is built for installers who need a practical electric cable blowing machine for small cable diameters and narrow duct ranges. Instead of stepping up to a larger pneumatic or hydraulic platform too early, this model keeps the setup focused on the range that matters most in FTTH, access network expansion, campus work, and light distribution routes.
The machine uses an electric motor with variable speed and torque control, so the operator can adapt the pushing force to the cable structure and the route. The control panel allows live monitoring of key values during installation, which helps reduce trial-and-error on site and makes the process more repeatable.
Controlled electric drive
Stable electric operation with adjustable speed and torque for different micro cable diameters and route conditions.
Operator visibility
4.3" screen monitoring for length, torque, and speed, so the installer can react before the cable starts fighting the route.
Compact field handling
Portable size, remote control support, and a clean setup concept for contractors who do not want oversized equipment on smaller jobs.
Technical Specifications of the ElektroFOK Cable Blowing Machine
The numbers below reflect the working range of the machine. Actual blowing performance always depends on cable stiffness, duct condition, route geometry, lubrication, compressor quality, and how well the accessory set matches the job.
| Machine type | Electric cable blowing machine for micro cable installation |
|---|---|
| Cable diameter range | Ø1 mm to Ø8 mm |
| Duct diameter range | Ø4 mm to Ø18 mm |
| Operating pressure | Up to 15 bar |
| Maximum blowing distance | Up to 1,000 m, depending on cable/duct combination and route conditions |
| Maximum blowing speed | Up to 90 m/min, depending on site conditions and setup |
| Display | 4.3" touchscreen interface for length, torque, and speed monitoring |
| Control | Remote control support for forward, reverse, and speed adjustment |
| Weight | 17.8 kg without packaging / 24.1 kg with packaging |
| Packed dimensions | 41 x 41 x 32 cm |
Selection note: ElektroFOK is strongest where the job is genuinely in the micro cable range. If the cable diameter grows, or the route starts demanding a heavier platform, it is usually better to step into FOK or HidroFOK instead of forcing the wrong machine into the wrong project. Humans do love buying the wrong size first and explaining it later.
Typical Field Performance – Engineering Reference
These figures are indicative engineering ranges, not guaranteed machine performance. Actual results depend on cable construction, duct ID, route geometry, bends, lubrication, compressor airflow and pressure, sealing quality, and site conditions.
| Published maximum speed | Up to 90 m/min |
|---|---|
| Published maximum distance | Up to 1,000 m |
| Typical operating speed | 25–50 m/min |
| Typical single blowing run | 300–800 m |
| Indicative blowing output per 8-hour shift | 2–4 km |
Air supply note: the machine supports operation up to 15 bar, but pressure alone does not determine compressor suitability. Required airflow varies with duct ID, route length, leakage, bends, and target distance.
See the Cable Blowing Distance & Performance Guide for the engineering assumptions behind these ranges.
Why Choose ElektroFOK for Micro Cable Installation
Typical project fit
- Field Support
- FTTH feeder and access cable installation
- Small duct and microduct routes in urban telecom work
- Campus, industrial, utility, and building-to-building fiber links
- Jobs where compact equipment is easier to move than larger air or hydraulic systems
Why contractors choose this range
- Good fit for small cable diameters without jumping to oversized machines
- Cleaner operator control over speed and torque
- Useful screen feedback during installation
- Portable format for daily field use and service work
If your project is still undecided between small pneumatic and electric platforms, review MikroFOK vs ElektroFOK and the cable blowing machine selection guide. Those two pages usually save time before the quote stage.
ElektroFOK Cable Blowing Machine Accessories and Setup
Like the rest of the range, ElektroFOK should be configured according to the actual cable OD and duct size. That matters because the right roller, seal, and connector combination affects grip, sealing efficiency, air performance, and cable stability throughout the route.
Drive rollers
Selected according to cable diameter so the machine grips the cable correctly without crushing or slipping.
Nutring and sealing parts
Used to improve air sealing around the cable OD and support more stable blowing performance.
Duct connection tools
Matched to duct dimensions for secure coupling and cleaner field setup.
What to share before quotation
- Cable outer diameter
- Duct outer/inner diameter
- Approximate route length
- Number and severity of bends
- Site conditions such as elevation changes, dirty duct risk, or unusual friction points
Useful complementary items for this setup include the Y Connector for cable blowing machine, cable blowing lubricant, and air cooler where route and climate conditions justify them.
Compare the ElektroFOK Cable Blowing Machine with Other Models
MikroFOK
A pneumatic micro cable solution focused on very small cable ranges and FTTH-oriented work. If you are comparing electric control against a pneumatic micro platform, start with the dedicated comparison page.
MiniFOK
A broader-capacity handheld option when you need to move above very small micro cable work but still want a compact installation platform.
FOK Cable Blowing Machine
A stronger step up for larger cable diameters and wider duct ranges, typically where ElektroFOK would be too narrow for the project.
HidroFOK
The heavy-duty hydraulic option for larger backbone cable installations, longer demanding routes, and more aggressive job conditions.
You can also browse the full cable blowing machine range if you are evaluating more than one installation scenario.
Practical Workflow with the ElektroFOK Cable Blowing Machine
On site, good results usually come from boring discipline rather than heroic improvisation. The machine does its job better when the setup is clean, the duct is properly prepared, and the accessory set actually matches the cable.
- Match the rollers, seals, and duct connector to the real cable and duct sizes.
- Prepare the duct route and confirm the duct is suitable for blowing conditions.
- Mount the cable carefully and check entry alignment before pressurizing.
- Set the appropriate speed and torque values on the screen.
- Start the blowing process and monitor length, torque, and speed during the run.
- Adjust the settings when route resistance changes instead of forcing the cable blindly into the duct.

FAQ about the ElektroFOK Cable Blowing Machine
What cable diameters can ElektroFOK install?
ElektroFOK is designed for micro cables from Ø1 mm to Ø8 mm.
What duct sizes are supported?
The machine supports duct and microduct sizes from Ø4 mm to Ø18 mm with the correct connection parts.
How far can the ElektroFOK cable blowing machine install cable?
Under suitable project conditions, the machine can reach up to 1,000 meters. Actual distance depends on the cable structure, duct condition, route bends, lubrication, and general installation quality.
Is ElektroFOK pneumatic or hydraulic?
Neither. ElektroFOK is an electric cable blowing machine with variable speed and torque control.
What can be monitored during installation?
The operator can monitor length, torque, and speed on the 4.3" touchscreen interface during the blowing process.
What should I send before asking for a quotation?
Please share cable diameter, duct size, route length, and basic route conditions. That is the fastest way to size the machine and accessory package correctly.
Need a quotation for ElektroFOK?
Send your cable diameter, duct size, and route details through the cable blowing machine quote page. If the project sits between two models, the selection can be narrowed before quotation so you do not end up buying capacity you do not need.
