Note from asker:
| Narasimhan, have we any idea from the meagre info what sort of "tube clusters" they might be? Used for what? How they wd be cleaned? |

heat exchanger pipework
I think that "faisceaux" could be redundant in English.

I haven't come across this precise redundancy, but French does tend to have more redundancy than English.
It could be a refrigeration plant, a cooling tower ... Géothermie? don't know.
However, I now found the ref below (bilingual website) and it seems that "heat exchanger bundles" is a standard expression - lots of industrial ghits. However, Fouré Lagadec don't bother with "tubulaires" in the French version.

Missed it! Further down they do use this expression and translate it as "heat exchanger tube bundles".

Note from asker:
| Morning BDF! Yes, I rather wish it wasn't there. Have you come across this sort of redundancy before? Do you think this is Géothermie, pipes in the ground? Do you know how they would be usually cleaned? I'm really clueless here. I'm going to install Air/Eau system this autumn. Capital cost much less, rendement comparable. |

Tube bundles of (heat) exchangers.
In a design of a heat exchangers, the tube bundle with inter spaces are fixed in a shell with a cylindrical vessel enveloping it. The exchanger of heat is achieved by the liquid/gas/vapor passing inside the tubes and the area surrounding it. this is the basic design and the number of tubes and its length depend on the requirement in design.

: "Heat exchanger tube bundles" is the way round it needs to be, no "of" and "heat" isn't optional.
