First Claim
1. An agricultural product distribution system comprising:
- an inductor box configured to receive agricultural product and conveyed air and to combine the agricultural product and the conveyed air; and
a removable baffle having a plurality of ports that are configured to control an amount of the conveyed air that flows through the inductor box, wherein the inductor box is configured to enable the removable baffle to be slidingly inserted into the inductor box, and the removable baffle comprises a tang that enables insertion of the removable baffle in a first orientation in which one or more ports of the plurality of ports align with one or more air channels of the inductor box and that at least partially blocks insertion of the removable baffle into the inductor box in a second orientation in which the plurality of ports do not align with the one or more air channels.
