Volumetric Flow Rate
mL/stoL/s
Convert millilitres per second (mL/s) to litres per second (L/s).
Factor1 mL/s = 0.001 L/s
Converter

Rendered to 6 significant figures.
Formula
Formula
L/s = mL/s × 0.001
Multiply any value in millilitres per second by 0.001 to obtain the value in litres per second.
Worked example
Convert 1000 mL/s to L/s.
- 01Start with 1000 mL/s.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1000 × 0.001 = 1 L/s.
Result1000 mL/s = 1 L/s

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from mL/s to L/s?
1 mL/s equals 0.001 L/s. To convert, multiply the value in millilitres per second by 0.001.
How do I convert 1 mL/s to L/s?
1 mL/s = 0.001 L/s. For any value, multiply by 0.001.
How do I convert L/s back to mL/s?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1000. So 1 L/s = 1000 mL/s.
When would I need to convert millilitre per second 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. mL/s 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).
