Frequently asked questions
What is the source unit in this conversion?
The source unit is liters per minute (L/min). The Liter (L) is a unit of volume. The Minute (min) is a unit of time.
What is the destination unit in this conversion?
The destination unit is deciliters per second (dL/s). The Deciliter (dL) is a unit of volume. The Second (s) is a unit of time.
How do I convert liters per minute to deciliters per second?
Multiply the liters per minute value by 0.166667 to get deciliters per second. For example, 10 L/min × 0.166667 = 1.66667 dL/s.
Is the liters per minute to deciliters per second conversion exact?
It's exact under the SI-based volume and time definitions used here, since both units convert to cubic meters per second through fixed, non-rounded factors.
Where is this conversion commonly used?
Flow rate conversions like this are used in plumbing, HVAC, irrigation, chemical processing, fuel and water metering, and engineering flow calculations.
Can I convert deciliters per second back to liters per minute?
Yes. Divide the deciliters per second value by 0.166667 (or multiply by 6) to get liters per minute.

About this conversion
This page converts liters per minute (L/min) into deciliters per second (dL/s), two units of volumetric flow rate.
The Liter (L) is a unit of volume. The Minute (min) is a unit of time.
The Deciliter (dL) is a unit of volume. The Second (s) is a unit of time.
The formula is dL/s = L/min × 0.166667, based on the fixed relationship between these two flow rate units.
Flow rate is calculated as a volume unit divided by a time unit, so every combination of a volume unit and a time unit forms a valid, exact flow rate unit.
