Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / wireless safety technology | | German term or phrase: 3-Fehlersicherheit | Zu den wesentlichen Verfügbarkeits-gewährleistenden Maßnahmen gehört zum einen eine Redundanz der Funkfrequenzen, d. h. die Funkstrecke wird wechselweise im lizenzfreien 433 MHz-Band und 868 MHz-Band betrieben. Zum zweiten gehört – neben einer Vielzahl weiterer Maßnahmen – eine 3-Fehlersicherheit nicht oder nicht konsistent empfangener Sendeprotokolle dazu. Darüber hinaus lassen sich wechselseitige Beeinflussungen von ESALAN-Wireless-Systemen selbst über 4 unterschiedliche Kanalpaarungen und über Einstellmöglichkeiten der Sendeleistung vermeiden.

Fault tolerant systems employ a range of technologies that improve system integrity and reduce the likelihood of control systems failures....
...but if two or more resources fail in most dual or triple fault tolerant systems, the entire system may fail.

| 3-error safety
Explanation:
cf. explanation in link below - the device does an error-triggered procedure after 3 errors (as opp. to after 1 error = 1-Fehlersicherheit)
although I can't find the actual translation for this term, I am relatively sure that "Fehler" is to be interpreted in the sense of "error" (statistically treated aberration) and Sicherheit in the sense of "safety" since the whole concept is a safety feature, as opp. to security or confidence...

| triple failsafe
Explanation:
Naturally, you would need to reword the sentence to avoid something gross like 'failsafeness'. Personally, I prefer 'triple fault tolerance', since I'm old enough to remember when 'failsafe' meant 'assuming a safe state in the event of failure' instead of 'fault-proof', but 'failsafe' is now commonly used in the latter sense.
