What is a day tank?
smaller aux tank which contains a days worth of fuel

How is it used?
fuel is filtered and transfered to the daytank for immediate use

Why would you want one?

as part of an onboard fuel polishing system. A choice of many people
who don't have rapid turnover of fuel in the main tank. Allows for
secondary and continuous on board fuel filtration.
