A leak warning would be hearing the noise. I'm almost positive that you will hear it, and we have on past tanks. You hear it on robots with pneumatics or anything with leaks. Its the exact same thing if there's a leak in an inner tube or a track ball. You can even notice the pressure drop while testing at a low pressure (we watch our gauges and test before going up to full pressure). So I don't believe that is correct. But I do believe that the instant failure is correct.
