Abstract
An electric motor for a pump is provided. The electric motor includes a motor controller configured to convert alternating current (AC) power supplied to a variable frequency variable voltage power for driving the electric motor at a motor output according to a commanded motor output. The motor controller includes an inverter configured to generate the variable frequency variable voltage power according to the commanded motor output and a microcontroller coupled to the inverter. The microcontroller is configured to control the inverter to operate at a first switching frequency when the motor output is less than a threshold motor output and control the inverter to operate at a second switching frequency when the motor output is greater than the threshold motor output, wherein the second switching frequency is less than the first switching frequency.
