Formula

Formula
mg/s = kg/min × 16666.67

Multiply any value in kilograms per minute by 16666.67 to obtain the value in milligrams per second.

Worked example

Convert 1 kg/min to mg/s.

  1. 01Start with 1 kg/min.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 16666.67 = 16666.7 mg/s.
Result1 kg/min = 16666.7 mg/s

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from kg/min to mg/s?
1 kg/min equals 16666.67 mg/s. To convert, multiply the value in kilograms per minute by 16666.67.
How do I convert 1 kg/min to mg/s?
1 kg/min = 16666.7 mg/s. For any value, multiply by 16666.67.
How do I convert mg/s back to kg/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 6e-5. So 1 mg/s = 6e-5 kg/min.
When would I need to convert kilogram per minute to milligram per second?
Mass flow conversions between kg/min and mg/s are common in material balances, process stream summaries, bulk solids handling, custody transfer, and equipment sizing where kg/hr, t/hr, lb/hr, and lb/s may all appear in different datasheets or vendor documents.
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).
