Oceanic Regulator Dry Valve Technology (DVT)
Oceanic DVT is a revolutionary regulator technology designed to automatically reduce moisture and contaminants from entering your first stage, even if the dust cap is accidentally left off. Though you should always use your dust cap to keep dust and other contaminants from entering your regulator first stage, the extra protection of DVT means one less worry.

How Does It Work? Open the tank valve and air is delivered through a downstream system without restriction. When your dive is finished, before the regulator is even removed from the tank valve, the Dry Valve Technology system is already closed, sealing out moisture and any other contamination. The filter is safely positioned behind the moisture barrier to eliminate filter flow restriction due to corrosion.

While these are excellent reference materials, in no way should this information be considered a replacement for proper training for the specific type of diving in which you plan to participate.
