Schneider Electric XA2EA21 XA2E black push-button 1 NO
Description
XA2EA21: black XA2E push-button, 1 NO
The XA2EA21 is a Schneider Electric Harmony XA2 complete push-button in the XA2E plastic series for a 22 mm panel hole. It is a black flush spring-return push-button with 1 NO, with a plastic bezel and fixing collar. Seven Star LLC supplies the XA2EA21 in Oman and the GCC as an independent supplier in Muscat.
The datasheet used for this page is dated 8 Nov 2026 and shows the reference as discontinued: discontinuation is dated 9 Jan 2026 and end of service 1 Jul 2026. Treat availability as stock-dependent and ask about replacement options when you enquire. Reading the reference: XA2E is the component family, and the title of the product gives the cap colour, the operator action and the contact block. The contact is a 1 NO with slow-break operation, so this normally open contact closes when the button is pressed.
Operator, mounting and wiring of the XA2EA21
The body mounts in a 22.5 mm hole with the fixing nut tightened to 2–2.4 N.m and a panel thickness of 1–5 mm. Overall size is 30 mm wide, 42 mm high and 54.7 mm deep, and the net weight is 0.032 kg. The operator is allowed in any position.
Wiring goes to screw clamp terminals taking up to 2 x 1.5 mm² or 1 x 2.5 mm², with 6.3 mm Faston tabs as an alternative. Tighten the terminals to 0.8 N.m. The datasheet asks for a 10 A gL fuse as short-circuit protection of the contact circuit.

Electrical ratings and durability of the XA2EA21
The rated operational current is 3 A at 240 V AC-15 and 0.27 A at 250 V DC-13, with a conventional thermal current of 10 A. Rated insulation voltage is 600 V and the impulse withstand voltage is 6 kV. For logic-level circuits the datasheet quotes reliability of better than 10-8 failures at 24 V.
Mechanical durability is 1500000 cycles; electrical durability is 500000 cycles at 3 A AC-15 / 230 V and 500000 cycles at 0.2 A DC-13 / 110 V. For a button pressed a few hundred times a day, the contact will outlast a typical panel; for high-rate use, check the cycle figures against the real duty.
How the XA2EA21 compares with other XA2E push-buttons
The XA2E flush push-buttons share the same body, size and wiring; they differ in cap colour, legend, contact type and action. The group below is taken from the datasheets of the references in this range.
| Reference | Colour | Contacts | Operator | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XA2EA11 | White | 1 NO | Spring return | White flush, unmarked |
| XA2EA21 (this page) | Black | 1 NO | Spring return | Black flush, unmarked |
| XA2EA31 | Green | 1 NO | Spring return | Green flush, unmarked |
| XA2EA42 | Red | 1 NC | Spring return | Red flush, unmarked |
| XA2EA4342 | Red | 1 NC | Spring return | Red flush, STOP (white) |
| XA2EH051 | Yellow | 1 NO | Push-push | Yellow flush, unmarked |
Choose by function first (start, stop, command), then by contact type, and keep one colour per function across the whole panel.
Where the XA2EA21 is used in Oman and the GCC
Push-buttons like this unit are found on pump starters, conveyor stations, fan controls, compressor skids and local control stations in utilities, water treatment and light industry. It typically serves as a secondary or auxiliary command on a local control station.
Dust, wash-down and heat are the usual Gulf concerns. The front is rated IP65, but the rear terminals still need an enclosure, and the plastic cap should be kept out of strong direct sun where possible.
Installation, replacement and spares for the XA2EA21
Because the datasheet marks this reference as discontinued, spares for existing panels are the main use. Check the panel hole is 22.5 mm, the cut-out spacing meets >= 30 x 40 mm, and that the contact block type (NO or NC) matches the wiring diagram. Swapping a NO button for a NC one reverses the control logic.
After fitting, test each function without load, check the contact state with a meter, and make sure the nameplate colour and legend match the function. Keep a note of the reference this unit on the panel records so a future replacement can be matched quickly.

About brand
Schneider Electric is the French group for energy management and industrial automation: low and medium voltage switchgear and circuit breakers, motor control, drives, PLCs, power monitoring, UPS systems and building management. Its history goes back to 1836, when the brothers Adolphe and Eugène Schneider took over the iron and steel works at Le Creusot in Burgundy. Over the 20th century the company left steel and heavy engineering and became an electrical group through acquisitions such as Merlin Gerin, Télémécanique, Square D and Modicon. Its head office is in Rueil-Malmaison near Paris, and its shares are listed on Euronext Paris.

- 1975: First investment in Merlin Gerin, a French maker of electrical distribution equipment.
- 1988–1992: Télémécanique, Square D (USA) and Merlin Gerin join the group, making it an electrical specialist.
- 1997: Modicon, the company behind the first programmable logic controller, joins the group.

Choosing Schneider Electric breakers and motor control
Circuit breakers are chosen by current and breaking capacity. Acti9 miniature circuit breakers (iC60, C120) protect final circuits up to 125 A. ComPacT NSX molded case breakers cover about 16 to 630 A, and the letter after the frame size sets the breaking capacity: B, F, N, H, S, L from lowest to highest. MasterPacT air circuit breakers are used as main incomers on large switchboards. For motors, a TeSys contactor with an LRD overload relay or a GV2 motor circuit breaker suits direct starting, an Altistart soft starter reduces starting current, and an Altivar drive controls speed. The breaking capacity must always be at least the prospective short-circuit current at the point of installation.
Where Schneider Electric products are used
In Oman and the GCC, Schneider Electric equipment is found in main and sub-main switchboards of commercial and residential buildings, motor control centres in water, oil and gas and industrial plants, substations protected by Sepam and Easergy relays, data centres powered by Galaxy and APC UPS systems, and buildings controlled by EcoStruxure Building Operation.
APC by Schneider Electric: UPS and critical power
Since 2007, APC has been part of Schneider Electric and is now its product brand for uninterruptible power supplies, replacement batteries, battery packs, network management cards and rack power distribution. Our APC catalogue covers Smart-UPS line-interactive and on-line models, Easy UPS On-Line, the modular Symmetra LX, RM and PX ranges, Silcon three-phase systems and their spare part kits, and the RBC cartridges that keep them running. Schneider Electric breakers, drives and PLCs can be quoted together with APC UPS systems in one request.

Ordering Schneider Electric products: what we need
Send the commercial reference from the label (for example LC1D18M7 or ATV320U22N4C). For breakers, confirm the rated current, number of poles, breaking capacity and trip unit. For contactors, give the coil voltage. For drives, give the motor power and supply voltage. APC products are listed on their own brand page.
