Centiliter per Seconds to Hectoliters per Millisecond Converter — cL/s to hL/ms
Convert Centiliter per Seconds (cL/s) to Hectoliter per Millisecond (hL/ms) using the exact conversion factor (1 centiliter per seconds = 1e-7 hectoliter per millisecond). See the formula, worked examples, and conversion table.

About Converting Centiliter per Seconds to Hectoliters per Millisecond
Centiliter per Seconds and Hectoliter per Millisecond 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
hectoliters per millisecond = centiliter per seconds × 1e-7
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centiliter per seconds equals 0.00001 base units, and 1 hectoliter per millisecond equals 100 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centiliter per seconds-to-hectoliter per millisecond factor of 1e-7.
Simple example
1 cL/s × 1e-7 = 1e-7 hL/ms
1 centiliter per seconds = 1e-7 hectoliters per millisecond.
Real-world example
60 cL/s × 1e-7 = 0.000006 hL/ms
60 centiliter per seconds = 0.000006 hectoliters per millisecond.
Conversion table
| Centiliter per Seconds (cL/s) | Hectoliter per Millisecond (hL/ms) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 cL/s | 1e-8 hL/ms |
| 1 cL/s | 1e-7 hL/ms |
| 10 cL/s | 0.000001 hL/ms |
| 60 cL/s | 0.000006 hL/ms |
| 100 cL/s | 0.00001 hL/ms |
| 1,000 cL/s | 0.0001 hL/ms |
Reverse conversion: Hectoliter per Millisecond to Centiliter per Seconds
1e-7 hL/ms × 10000000 = 1 cL/s
1e-7 hectoliters per millisecond = 1 centiliter per seconds.
centiliter per seconds = hectoliters per millisecond × 10000000

Frequently asked questions
How many hectoliters per millisecond are in 1 centiliter per seconds?
1 centiliter per seconds equals 1e-7 hectoliters per millisecond, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centiliter per seconds to hectoliter per millisecond?
Multiply the centiliter per seconds value by 1e-7. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert hectoliter per millisecond back to centiliter per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 hectoliter per millisecond equals 10,000,000 centiliter per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centiliter per seconds?
Centiliter per Seconds (cL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a hectoliter per millisecond?
Hectoliter per Millisecond (hL/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the centiliter per seconds to hectoliter per millisecond conversion exact?
Yes. Both centiliter per seconds and hectoliter per millisecond are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1e-7 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.
