Any relay or contactor that is rated for the motor HP will work. Assuming this is a single phase 230 volt motor, a one pole relay is code compliant, but I'd use a two pole.
The motor needs to be thermally protected, but almost all single phase pumps have protection built into the motor.
The Franklin control box might have a relay in it, most smaller ones do not. They do have a start capacitor, and a start switch. Some also have a run capacitor. An above-ground pump has all these built into the motor.
If the pump doesn't have the HP listed on the nameplate, you can figure a 2 HP will be around 10-13 amps, and a 3 HP will be 14-18.
The 15 amp relay in question would be code compliant only if it was rated for the motor HP.
