Pump stations play an important role in providing drinking water in cities. They are mainly composed of fluid, hydraulic, chemical, and electrical subsystems. The purpose of this work is to investigate performance of the pump station in Ahvaz city based on its dynamic model; some instructions are proposed to improve the performance of this pump station. To this end, based on available technical information, the dynamic model of the pump station was first constructed using the bond graph method and 20sim software. Then, the performance of the system was evaluated under different working conditions. According to the investigations, it was found that replacing the outlet pipeline of the raw water section resulted in a decrease not only in the amount of electricity consumed by the pumps, but in hydraulic wastes in circuit. What's more, different types of pumps were studied to achieve a model in which the energy consumption and hydraulic wastes is minimum. According to this study and based on results it is available to replacing any type of pump by knowing the dynamic model of electro pump
