Fair enough, but you *DO* need to test at a faster supply rise rate than the actual machine's PSU can produce. If the peak voltage before the crowbar fires is acceptable at double the rise rate you can be confident it will always be acceptable (neglecting tolerance variations) in actual installations.
I suggest scoping the output of an unloaded Omron 24VDC PSU (if that's what's in the machine) during powerup to get the rise rate, finding its output capacitance, then using a bench PSU set to 24V, + external capacitance equal to the Omron PSU, with the bench PSU's current limit set to charge the capacitor twice as fast as the Omron PSU can, for twice the rise rate. Due to the extra capacitor, you can use a simple switch between the PSU and the capacitor as bounce will no longer be such a critical issue. Scope the result and confirm the rise rate is near to double the Omron's rise rate.
Have you considered adding a 'witness' fuse? A separate low current fuse, tapped off upstream of the main fuse, feeding only a 12V Zener - if that fuse is blown >12V or reverse polarrity must have been applied to the 5V rail. That way you can distinguish between board faults that blow the main fuse and bad installation
