French term
équipements matériels lourds
French to English
Medical
Medical (general)
Radiology
I am translating a paper on interventional radiology.
Concernant l’évaluation médico-administrative, il (interventional radiology) s’agit d’une technique médicale mettant en jeu un dispositif médical, l’appareil de radiologie, qui par ailleurs présente la particularité d’être considéré comme *équipement matériel lourd*.
'équipements matériels lourds' seems to be a category of medical equipment covered by the French public health code, MRI equipment etc - is this just 'heavy hardware'?

installations / installed facilities
Needs to be handled carefull depending on exact surrounding context.
Note that 'équipements' in the plural often is closer to 'installations', 'facilities', 'plant', etc. than to actual 'items of equipment'.

It is necessary to udnerstand that there are sometimes different ways of expressing things between FR and EN, and a slavish word-for-word translation is often not satisfactory; sense of 'lourd' here is simply 'something installed, can't be carried around'

heavy equipment
In US EN, heavy equipment is a common phrase. It usually describes transportation and construction or earth moving vehicles, but occasionally describes radiology equipment although that usage is not a standardized term as in the case of motor vehicles.

The design of these facilities can be adjusted to meet your specific requirements but often incorporate relevant magnetic shielding, radiation protection, RF enclosures, pressure equalisation, oxygen monitoring systems and robust concrete floors to accommodate heavy equipment eliminating vibration.
