When you say "it fails" do you mean it explodes? Why would it explode if you were to cap off the pressure lower than its maximum? If you were to know the maximum PSI of your tube, you can then buy a pop safety value 40 - 50 PSI less than the maximum. Therefore you can't fail, unless all the stress on the tube from charge and discharge weakens the material.
