Probably not SAFETY certified though -— and he will be responsible when the bins go up because a fan and a sensor fail simultaneously, causing a methane buildup, and then the “smart switches” finally get tripped in a methane/oxygen environment, and his family or workers are killed.

I post this as I sit in a PLC/SAFETY/ISO-26262 meeting.

Toyota paid 4 billion dollars for their bitflip error that caused Lexii to accelerate unbound.

Sometimes it is AOK to be cheap, other times, not so much.

IIRC the Lexis problem was from the wrong floor mat.
And the multitude of attorneys piling on related Toyota vehicles... later determined to be throttle misapplication. Just like the Audi 5000.

Whether he used a PLC or PLA unless it is programmed tested and approved by various agencies $$$ and unless the wiring is good for Class 1 Div 2 or whatever is required...

Intrinsicly safe? A very specialized line of work.
