Convert Litres per minute to Microlitres per second
Convert Litres per minute (L/min) to Microlitres per second (µL/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
µL/s = L/min × 16666.66667
About Litres per minute
The litre per minute (L/min) equals 10⁻³/60 ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁵ m³/s, one of the most common flow units in consumer and light-industrial applications. Household washing machines use 10-15 L/min; oxygen concentrators deliver 1-10 L/min to patients; a standard garden sprinkler head discharges 15-30 L/min. 1 L/min ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁵ m³/s ≈ 0.2642 US gal/min.
About Microlitres per second
The microlitre per second (µL/s) equals 10⁻⁹ m³/s, the working range of microfluidic lab-on-a-chip devices and nano-HPLC pumps. Organ-on-a-chip perfusion bioreactors, droplet microfluidic systems, and capillary electrophoresis instruments operate at 0.1-100 µL/s. A syringe pump delivering 0.36 mL/h produces exactly 0.1 µL/s. 1 µL/s = 10⁻⁹ m³/s = 60 µL/min.
