Mass Flow Rate

mg/mintokg/hr

Convert milligrams per minute (mg/min) to kilograms per hour (kg/hr).

Factor1 mg/min = 6e-5 kg/hr

Converter

mg/min

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

Result
6kg/hr

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
kg/hr = mg/min × 6e-5

Multiply any value in milligrams per minute by 6e-5 to obtain the value in kilograms per hour.

Worked example

Convert 100000 mg/min to kg/hr.

  1. 01Start with 100000 mg/min.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 100000 × 6e-5 = 6 kg/hr.
Result100000 mg/min = 6 kg/hr

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from mg/min to kg/hr?
1 mg/min equals 6e-5 kg/hr. To convert, multiply the value in milligrams per minute by 6e-5.
How do I convert 1 mg/min to kg/hr?
1 mg/min = 6e-5 kg/hr. For any value, multiply by 6e-5.
How do I convert kg/hr back to mg/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 16666.67. So 1 kg/hr = 16666.7 mg/min.
When would I need to convert milligram per minute to kilogram per hour?
Mass flow conversions between mg/min and kg/hr 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).
