Milliliter per Minute to Liter per Second Converter

Milliliter per minute (mL/min) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing the volume of fluid in milliliters passing through a given area per minute. It's used for precise, small-scale flow measurements.

The mL/min unit became essential with the development of precision medical equipment, analytical instruments, and microfluidics. It provided appropriate scaling for applications involving small volumes and precise flow control, particularly in medical and laboratory settings.

mL/min is extensively used in medical devices (syringe pumps, dialysis machines), analytical chemistry, microfluidics, and precision dosing systems. It's standard for medical infusion pumps, chromatography systems, and laboratory analytical equipment requiring precise flow control.

Liter per second (L/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing the volume of fluid in liters passing through a given area per second. It equals 0.001 cubic meters per second, providing a convenient scale for moderate flow measurements.

The L/s unit developed with the widespread adoption of the liter as a practical volume unit. It became particularly useful for water supply systems, plumbing applications, and medium-scale fluid handling where cubic meters would be too large and milliliters too small.

L/s is commonly used in plumbing and water supply systems, irrigation, fire protection systems, and laboratory applications. It's standard for measuring flow rates in residential and commercial water systems, pump specifications, and hydraulic system design.
