3 panels would be 600 watts. He needs 1500 watts to run a 2 HP pump. It sounds like someone is trying to "up-sell" you an $8K system.
Post the make and model of each piece of equipment.
A 2HP VFD - $232 (240 1 ph input, 3 ph output)
A 2HP motor, 3 ph, 230/460V, $988
The VFD has 3 speed settings built in, which can be controlled with simple contact closures. True variable speed can be set using a variable resistor or 4-20 mA signal. I expect you would use the contact closures.
