About Converting Cubic foot per Minutes to Pint per Minutes
Cubic foot per Minutes and Pint per Minutes 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. Cubic foot per Minutes is most often used for the standard unit for rating hvac airflow, compressed-air equipment output, and fan/blower performance.
Formula
pint per minutes = cubic foot per minutes × 59.8441558442
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cubic foot per minutes equals 0.0004719474432 base units, and 1 pint per minutes equals 0.00000788627455 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per minutes-to-pint per minutes factor of 59.8441558442.
Simple example
1 ft3/min × 59.84415584 = 59.84415584 pt/min
1 cubic foot per minutes = 59.84415584 pint per minutes.
Real-world example
60 ft3/min × 59.84415584 = 3,590.649351 pt/min
60 cubic foot per minutes = 3,590.649351 pint per minutes.

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.
