L/mintomL/s

Convert litres per minute (L/min) to millilitres per second (mL/s).

Factor1 L/min = 16.66667 mL/s

Converter

L/min

Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7

Result
166.667mL/s

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
mL/s = L/min × 16.66667

Multiply any value in litres per minute by 16.66667 to obtain the value in millilitres per second.

Worked example

Convert 10 L/min to mL/s.

  1. 01Start with 10 L/min.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 10 × 16.66667 = 166.667 mL/s.
Result10 L/min = 166.667 mL/s

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from L/min to mL/s?
1 L/min equals 16.66667 mL/s. To convert, multiply the value in litres per minute by 16.66667.
How do I convert 1 L/min to mL/s?
1 L/min = 16.6667 mL/s. For any value, multiply by 16.66667.
How do I convert mL/s back to L/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.06. So 1 mL/s = 0.06 L/min.
When would I need to convert litre per minute to millilitre per second?
Flow-rate conversions show up in pump curve interpretation, control valve sizing (Cv vs Kv), and aligning vendor specifications with process simulation outputs. L/min to mL/s is a frequently needed conversion for flow datasheet preparation.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
