| | Comment | Explanation:
"Batteries" might do, at a pinch, but it must be realized that these are not batteries or accumulators in the sense of those things you put in your transistor radio!
"Batterie" refers to a set, a unit, a group of something:
<<Une batterie de radiateurs est un ensemble de radiateurs montés en série dans un même local>>
[Dicobat]
batterie d'ascenseurs = lift bank (set of lifts in the same location)
<<battery ... 2. Any group of two or more similar adjacent plumbing fixtures which discharge into a common horizontal waste or soil branch>>
[Dict. of Architecture & Construction, MCGHill]
However, in HVAC it is most commonly a coil.
batterie de bypass = run-around coil
batterie à air chaud = blast heater
batterie à air pulsé = blast coil
batterie à détente directe = direct expansion coil
batterie d'évporation = evaporation coil
batterie de plafond = ceiling coil
batterie de préchauffage = preheat coil
batterie froide sèche - drier coil
[The Int. Dict. of Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning, REHVA]
The Penguin Dict of Bldg gives:
coil (1) battery [I think that should read "coil (1), battery"] A curved pipe containing hot or cold flowing water, a heat exchanger from liquid to air, used in air conditioning as a hot coil for heating or a cold coil for cooling ... |

| Note from asker to answererYes, further research on the manufacturer's website reveals the batteries to be "batteries of coils", where the refrigerant condenses.
