Diesel Storage Tanks

When the physical size limit of a sub-base fuel tank simply isn’t enough, a day-tank could be a viable option. A day-tank functions as the immediate fuel source, receiving fuel from a larger fuel storage tank. It can be a stand-alone tank mounted in proximity to the generator, or it could be a sub-base tank with provisions to be used as a day-tank. In either case, a day-tank is typically designed to contain a small amount of fuel which is automatically replenished through the use of pumps and controls.
