The radiators are special devices cool part attached to by dissipating heat into space. There are rigid and deployable variants.

They are easy to use. The rigid variants work permanently. The deployable versions need only a right click on the selected device, and another click on the button by the Extend/Retract Radiator label for extending and retracting the thermal controllers.

Naturally, these work by action groups too, and when using the Toggle Panels there is only a single action group is needed for the control of these systems.
