    its an american model as indicated by the model number.i wouldn,t be interested in changing out a good defrost heater.although it would be good business for suppliers.samsung made a field change to the defrost heater to cure an icing problem,freezing the drain hole and spilling water out of the bottom of the unit on to the floor.i,am sure you are aware of this major complaint!!! my problem is the upgraded defrost heater is larger than the original heater which i have but without a diagram to position it because it extends higher up on the evap cover onto the plastic evap blower motor frame.it is the right heater but samsung doesn,t want the home owner to make these repaires because of liability hence my attempt to get info on this site to position it properly over the original heater.

    Hi

    This model is an American STYLE.the model has several variations which were sold including a 110v which is why the question was asked whether you purchased it in the UK . The heater you have is NOT a defrost heater it is an evaporator cover heater.
