Marked measurement category

Not recorded

The record has no confirmed CAT category and voltage pair. A marking in a photograph cannot fill that gap.

The buying trap. Confirm the exact model’s manual before considering it for mains measurements.

Related models and generations

These are different products. Check their specifications separately.

  • SDM3055 bench multimeter Model: SDM3055

    5 1/2 digit version in the same family; higher resolution but a different model.

  • SDM3065X bench multimeter Model: SDM3065X

    6 1/2 digit version in the same family; higher resolution but a different model.

Purchase links appear where the exact offer is verified. Confirm the named model, quantity and accessories before ordering.

Watch out

  • Check the digit count when comparing: SDM3055 and SDM3065X are different, higher-resolution models.
  • The SC1016 scanner card option does not fit the SDM3045X.

Why people pick it

  • True bench accuracy: ±(0.06% + 8) counts one-year on DC voltage per the datasheet, with 2-wire or 4-wire resistance measurement
  • Logs and automates over USB and LAN with a standard SCPI command set compatible with mainstream bench multimeters, plus free EasyDMM PC software
  • Up to 150 readings per second with 10 K readings of history and 1 Gb of onboard file storage for long captures
  • Dual 4.3-inch display shows two measurements at once, with math functions including trend chart, histogram and statistics

Know before you buy

  • A bench instrument: it needs AC mains power and 3.76 kg of bench space, unlike a handheld multimeter
  • The SC1016 scanner card used with other SDM3000 series multimeters is not compatible with this model
  • Inputs above 7 A need a 30-seconds-on / 30-seconds-off duty cycle per the datasheet
  • Accuracy specs assume a 30-minute warm-up, so it is not a grab-and-go meter for quick spot checks
