Abstract:
A pneumatic distribution system to distribute a granular product to an agricultural implement includes a valve assembly fluidly coupled between a storage tank and a primary line. The storage tank is configured to store the granular product. The primary line is configured to pneumatically deliver the granular product to the agricultural implement by guiding an air stream from a first section of the primary line with a larger cross sectional area to a second section of the primary line with a smaller cross sectional area. The valve assembly selectively enables the air stream to flow from the primary line into the storage tank until a first static pressure in the storage tank is greater than a second static pressure in the second section of the primary line by a threshold amount.

Claim (Index 19):
The method of  claim 18 , comprising:\n monitoring, via a first pressure sensor fluidly coupled to the storage tank, the first static pressure in the storage tank; monitoring, via a second pressure sensor fluidly coupled to the meter housing, the second static pressure in the meter housing, downstream of a meter roller; and controlling, using a processor, a position of the valve to adjust the first static pressure to a value above the second static pressure by the threshold amount.
