This document includes a brief explanation about several different devises, one of which is a remote control air duct cleaner on wheels with a camera. This is different but possibly related and I really can't find a good translation. Thanks in advance for any help!!

laying (or fitting) of linings

Explanation:
You could call it a 'lining' or 'liner'. I think 'sleeve' would be OK here too, or even 'manchette' although I think that is used more in the context of tunnels. In any case, you could certainly use a 'packer' to install this.
