About Converting Centiliter per Minutes to Decaliter per Seconds
Centiliter per Minutes and Decaliter per Seconds both measure volumetric flow rate — how much volume passes a point over time — used to size pipes and pumps, monitor river or stream discharge, control industrial processes, and set medical infusion rates. Both are volumetric flow rate units.
Formula
decaliter per seconds = centiliter per minutes × 0.0000166666666667
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centiliter per minutes equals 1.666667e-7 base units, and 1 decaliter per seconds equals 0.01 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centiliter per minutes-to-decaliter per seconds factor of 0.0000166666666667.
Simple example
1 cL/min × 0.00001666666667 = 0.0000166667 daL/s
1 centiliter per minutes = 0.0000166667 decaliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 cL/min × 0.00001666666667 = 0.001 daL/s
60 centiliter per minutes = 0.001 decaliter per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many decaliter per seconds are in 1 centiliter per minutes?
1 centiliter per minutes equals 0.0000166667 decaliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centiliter per minutes to decaliter per seconds?
Multiply the centiliter per minutes value by 0.00001666666667. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert decaliter per seconds back to centiliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 decaliter per seconds equals 60,000 centiliter per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centiliter per minutes?
Centiliter per Minutes (cL/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a decaliter per seconds?
Decaliter per Seconds (daL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the centiliter per minutes to decaliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both centiliter per minutes and decaliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.00001666666667 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between volumetric and mass flow rate?
Volumetric flow rate measures the volume of fluid passing a point per unit time (for example, liters per second). Mass flow rate measures the mass instead. For a fluid of constant density the two are directly proportional, but for compressible fluids like gases, mass flow is often the more meaningful quantity.
