Convert UK gallons per second to Microlitres per second
Convert UK gallons per second (gal/s) to Microlitres per second (µL/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
µL/s = gal/s × 4546090
About UK gallons per second
The UK (imperial) gallon per second (gal/s) equals 4.54609×10⁻³ m³/s, about 20% larger than the US gallon per second. It appears in pre-metric British fire-fighting standards, large pump test certificates, and naval engineering calculations. A UK fire engine pump rated 1 000 UK gal/min delivers ≈16.67 UK gal/s. 1 UK gal/s = 4.54609×10⁻³ m³/s ≈ 1.201 US gal/s.
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.
