The request: a vertical pipeline pump for clear water from 0 to 90 °C, 25 m³/h at 30 m, NPSH 3.5 m. It is a typical building supply duty, and the ISG65-160 covers it.

Why a little extra head is good
The pump gives 32 m at 25 m³/h and keeps delivering more flow at lower head. A margin of a couple of metres covers pipe ageing and small errors in the head estimate without oversizing the motor.
If the water is near 90 °C
Clear water up to 90 °C is close to the hot water range. For a loop that runs hot all the time, the IRG version with a hot water seal is the better choice.
