The Double-Panel On/Off Switch for Atwood Gas and Electric Combination Water Heaters part # AT91230 is made by Atwood (Dometic) and the Suburban Water Heater SW6DE is made by Airexcel so I would not be able to inform direct compatibility of one another. That said, the panel is simply composed of toggle switches and a light so I am sure you could wire your water heater to work with this using the diagram I have attached for you below. Please disregard the wire colors as these are most likely different between the Atwood and Suburban water heaters.
