i should of said you want it around that pressure during use.
1100psi? I heat my bottle to 1500psi regularly and it never popped the disk. Burst disks are typically designed to burst at 2500-3000psi. It'd be really tough to get a bottle that high unless it was overfilled and/or intentionally overheated.

The bottles themselves are probably rated to safely withstand 3500+psi of pressure.
