Maintaining a stable carbon dioxide content in the process of producing breathing air is important both for the safety of divers performing underwater work and for avoiding financial losses resulting from poor product quality. This paper deals with the implementation of safety measurement systems for online control of the breathing air production process. On the basis of a qualified control system, the capability of the rationalised process was assessed, identifying both its current status and its potential for improvement in terms of eliminating defects caused by excessive carbon dioxide content. For process reasons, the effectiveness of online process monitoring was evaluated against the previously used periodic sample control by means of laboratory methods of instrumental analysis. The analysis was conducted at KTPP AMW1 for the compressed air supply system of the DGKN - 1202 complex.
