General Information
Overview
ISO 24316:2022 - Ships and marine technology - Design and test requirements for steel doors using electrical trace heating - specifies requirements for the design, materials, manufacture, testing and designation of electrical trace heating for steel doors fitted to vessels operating in low temperature environments (below −10 °C). The standard addresses structural types, sealing, materials (including trace heater cable construction), quality of manufacture and mandatory tests (weather-tightness and anti-icing) to ensure doors remain operable and ice-free in polar and cold-water service.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope and purpose
- Applies to steel doors on vessels sailing where mean daily low temperatures fall below −10 °C (e.g., Arctic waters).
- Ensures doors can be opened normally by adding heat via trace heating.
- Design & classification
- Opening direction: Type L (left-hand) and Type R (right-hand).
- Door locking modes: Type M (multi-buckle), Type H (single-handle linkage), Type W (hand-wheel linkage).
- Sealing
- Sealing rubber stripe cross-section: 45 mm × 20 mm; allowable initial compression 2 mm; compression under closing should be < 4 mm at load-bearing plate.
- Sealing stripe fixed with baffle and marine adhesive.
- Materials
- Door plate and frame: weldable steel or marine steel with minimum tensile strength 235 N/mm²; low-temperature performance must meet hull material grade at installation.
- Bolts/pins: corrosion-resistant with minimum tensile strength 235 N/mm².
- Sealing elastomers and lubricants must be suitable for repeated low-temperature cycling.
- Trace heater cable
- Composed of conductor, thermal resistor (self-regulating), insulating layers, metal shielding and an outer sheath.
- Insulating/outer sheath materials may include HDPE, FEP, PFA or other proven materials.
- Installation: cable must fit closely along the heated area, not be cut before fastening, and cable ends must be protected against moisture; follow supplier minimum bending radii.
- Quality & surface treatment
- No weld defects; rust removal to Sa2.5 or St3 per ISO 8501‑1 and application of anti-rust primer.
- Testing
- Weather-tightness (indentation and flushing tests) and anti-icing tests (device, conditions, procedures and pass/fail criteria are specified).
Practical applications and who uses this standard
- Ship designers and naval architects specifying doors for polar service
- Marine equipment manufacturers of heated doors and trace heating systems
- Shipbuilders and outfitters executing installation and surface treatment
- Classification societies, surveyors and flag administrations assessing compliance
- Shipowners/operators and operators in Arctic/cold regions seeking reliable, anti-icing access and safety systems
Practical benefits include maintained operability of doors in ice-prone waters, improved safety during evacuation, reduced icing-related failures and clearer procurement specifications.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
