The SIGLENT SDM3055 is a 5½-digit dual-display digital multimeter offering 240,000-count readings resolution. The SDM3055/SDM3055-SC is designed for high-precision, multifunction, and automatic measurement, pairing a broad measurement set with a 4.3-inch TFT-LCD and dual-display operation, a built-in front-panel help system, and file management with U-disc and local storage.

Application fields include research and development laboratories, repair and maintenance, calibration laboratories, automatic production test, and general bench-top use. The dual-display and built-in help system support both interactive bench work and automated test environments.

ValueTronics stocks and holds its own inventory in a 20,000-square-foot secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois, and each new unit is fulfilled directly from that facility.

## Compare Other Models in This Series

The SDM3055 is offered in two configurations of the same 5½-digit digital multimeter: the SDM3055 and the SDM3055-SC. Both share identical core measurement performance — 240,000-count resolution, dual-display, True-RMS AC voltage and current, and up to 150 readings per second — differing in scanning capability.

Each configuration provides the full SDM3055 measurement set across DC and AC voltage and current, 2/4-wire resistance, capacitance, frequency, period, diode, continuity, and TC/RTD temperature, along with standard USB Host and LAN interfaces and SCPI remote control.

Each model below links to its own dedicated product page with condition-matched pricing for the new configuration you select. Review the specific model page to confirm the exact configuration before ordering.

The base SDM3055 delivers the complete measurement set — DCV, ACV, DCI, ACI, 2/4-wire resistance, capacitance, frequency, period, diode, continuity, and TC/RTD temperature — as a bench multimeter supplied without the Scanner Card SC1016.

The two configurations differ by the Scanner Card SC1016: it is not included with the SDM3055 and is included with the SDM3055-SC. The SC1016 multiplexer adds 12 multipurpose channels plus 4 current channels supporting DCV, ACV, DCI, ACI, 2-wire and 4-wire resistance, capacitance, frequency, diode, continuity, and temperature.

See the comparison table for the configuration breakdown, including which model carries the scanner card and the resulting multi-point measurement channel counts.
