Convert US gallons per minute to US pints per hour
Convert US gallons per minute (gpm) to US pints per hour (pt/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
pt/h = gpm × 480
About US gallons per minute
The US gallon per minute (gpm) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/60 ≈ 6.309×10⁻⁵ m³/s, the dominant volumetric flow unit in US plumbing, HVAC, and water-treatment industries. EPA showerhead standards are set at 2.5 gpm; residential water meters size at 3/4"-1" for 5-20 gpm; municipal water-distribution design uses hundreds to thousands of gpm. 1 gpm ≈ 6.309×10⁻⁵ m³/s = 3.785 L/min.
About US pints per hour
The US pint per hour (pt/h) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/8/3600 ≈ 1.314×10⁻⁷ m³/s, used in US medical-device standards for slow-drip infusion and in American homebrew calculations for sparge water addition rates. A slow gravity sparge at 24 pt/h = 3 US gal/h is typical for small-batch homebrewing. 1 US pt/h ≈ 1.314×10⁻⁷ m³/s.
