Hi Enrique,
Contrary to the other DP tanks Tauchbunker tanks were not free flooding. The free flood DP tanks were initially designed in the 7a as SW tanks only. In the quest for ever incraesing ops radius of the 7b and then 7c those tanks were converted to DP. The conversion basically consisted of a fuel intake connection to the fuel manifold. From there one could distribute to day tank overhead in E/R or other tanks. The L.I. liked to use the fuel in the regelbunkers first, to have them become regular regelzellen as original designed for the balance of the patrol. Rgds, RB
