IIRC,

Both transfer pumps are connected to a common transfer pipe that transfers fuel from the main tank to both supply tanks equally. If one pump should fail, or is switched off when for example the caption comes on, the remaining transfer pump will still supply fuel to the transfer pipe and in turn to both supply tanks.

One transfer pump can supply fuel at a rate that means that the supply tanks will not run dry before the main.

Or something like that !
