About Converting Centiliter per Minutes to Hectoliter per Seconds
Centiliter per Minutes and Hectoliter 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
hectoliter per seconds = centiliter per minutes × 0.00000166666666667
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 hectoliter per seconds equals 0.1 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centiliter per minutes-to-hectoliter per seconds factor of 0.00000166666666667.
Simple example
1 cL/min × 0.000001666666667 = 0.0000016667 hL/s
1 centiliter per minutes = 0.0000016667 hectoliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 cL/min × 0.000001666666667 = 0.0001 hL/s
60 centiliter per minutes = 0.0001 hectoliter per seconds.

Reverse conversion: Hectoliter per Seconds to Centiliter per Minutes
0.0000016667 hL/s × 600000 = 1.00002 cL/min
0.0000016667 hectoliter per seconds = 1.00002 centiliter per minutes.
centiliter per minutes = hectoliter per seconds × 600000

Frequently asked questions
How many hectoliter per seconds are in 1 centiliter per minutes?
1 centiliter per minutes equals 0.0000016667 hectoliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centiliter per minutes to hectoliter per seconds?
Multiply the centiliter per minutes value by 0.000001666666667. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert hectoliter per seconds back to centiliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 hectoliter per seconds equals 600,000 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 hectoliter per seconds?
Hectoliter per Seconds (hL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the centiliter per minutes to hectoliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both centiliter per minutes and hectoliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.000001666666667 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.
