Redundant System
A system in which even if one part fails, the whole system
will fulfill its required function. This is usually achieved by
having dual channels of operation, such as dual valves, dual
wiring, dual guard switches etc.

undetected faults can cause loss of safety function.
Category 4 It has redundancy so there is no loss of safety function with a single failure. The
safety function must be checked before each use. An accumulation of undetected
faults does not affect the safety function. (Higher DC and MTTFd than Category 3.)
