Formula
Formula
L/s = m³/min × 16.66667
Multiply any value in cubic metres per minute by 16.66667 to obtain the value in litres per second.
Worked example
Convert 1 m³/min to L/s.
- 01Start with 1 m³/min.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 16.66667 = 16.6667 L/s.
Result1 m³/min = 16.6667 L/s

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from m³/min to L/s?
1 m³/min equals 16.66667 L/s. To convert, multiply the value in cubic metres per minute by 16.66667.
How do I convert 1 m³/min to L/s?
1 m³/min = 16.6667 L/s. For any value, multiply by 16.66667.
How do I convert L/s back to m³/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.06. So 1 L/s = 0.06 m³/min.
When would I need to convert cubic metre per minute to litre 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. m³/min to L/s is a frequently needed conversion for hydraulic sizing.
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).
