The present invention relates to a compressed air tank for sinking prevention. In general, when a pressure gauge of the compressed air tank is at a constant pressure or lower, a switch is operated to compress the compressed air tank and air using an air compressor such that the air can be stored at the constant pressure. When a water sensor with a float switch and a water sensor without the float switch detects water charged in the ship in a sunk situation of the ship caused by being bumped into rocks, the switch is turned on and a servo motor of a valve opened toward a servo motor of the compressed air tank is rotated to open the valve of a compression tank and to spray the internal air of the compression tank such that the air bag can be charged with the sprayed air to provide buoyancy to a sunk cabin; thereby preventing sinking. An outer skin formed of a carbon nanotube is formed on the outer surface of the air bag to prevent damage to the air bag caused by internal supplies or objects. When the water sensor detects the water charged in the ship, the switch of the air compressor is turned off to stop the operation of the air compressor regardless of the pressure variation of the compressed air tank.
