Flow Rate

mL/mintoL/min

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

Factor1 mL/min = 0.001 L/min

Converter

mL/min

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

Result
0.5L/min

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
L/min = mL/min × 0.001

Multiply any value in millilitres per minute by 0.001 to obtain the value in litres per minute.

Worked example

Convert 500 mL/min to L/min.

  1. 01Start with 500 mL/min.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 500 × 0.001 = 0.5 L/min.
Result500 mL/min = 0.5 L/min

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from mL/min to L/min?
1 mL/min equals 0.001 L/min. To convert, multiply the value in millilitres per minute by 0.001.
How do I convert 1 mL/min to L/min?
1 mL/min = 0.001 L/min. For any value, multiply by 0.001.
How do I convert L/min back to mL/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1000. So 1 L/min = 1000 mL/min.
When would I need to convert millilitre per minute to litre per minute?
Flow-rate conversions show up in pump curve interpretation, control valve sizing (Cv vs Kv), and aligning vendor specifications with process simulation outputs. mL/min to L/min is a frequently needed conversion for flow datasheet preparation.
Is the conversion exact?
Yes. Both mL/min and L/min are defined by exact SI relationships, so the displayed factor is exact (any rounding shown is only for display).
