About Converting Deciliter per Minutes to Milliliter per Seconds
Deciliter per Minutes and Milliliter 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
milliliter per seconds = deciliter per minutes × 1.66666666667
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 deciliter per minutes equals 0.00000166666666667 base units, and 1 milliliter per seconds equals 0.000001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct deciliter per minutes-to-milliliter per seconds factor of 1.66666666667.
Simple example
1 dL/min × 1.666666667 = 1.666666667 mL/s
1 deciliter per minutes = 1.666666667 milliliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 dL/min × 1.666666667 = 100 mL/s
60 deciliter per minutes = 100 milliliter per seconds.

Reverse conversion: Milliliter per Seconds to Deciliter per Minutes
1.666666667 mL/s × 0.6 = 1 dL/min
1.666666667 milliliter per seconds = 1 deciliter per minutes.
deciliter per minutes = milliliter per seconds × 0.6

Frequently asked questions
How many milliliter per seconds are in 1 deciliter per minutes?
1 deciliter per minutes equals 1.666666667 milliliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert deciliter per minutes to milliliter per seconds?
Multiply the deciliter per minutes value by 1.666666667. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert milliliter per seconds back to deciliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 milliliter per seconds equals 0.6 deciliter per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a deciliter per minutes?
Deciliter per Minutes (dL/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a milliliter per seconds?
Milliliter per Seconds (mL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the deciliter per minutes to milliliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both deciliter per minutes and milliliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1.666666667 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.
