About Converting Milliliter per Minutes to Centiliter per Seconds
Milliliter per Minutes and Centiliter 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
centiliter per seconds = milliliter per minutes × 0.00166666666667
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 milliliter per minutes equals 1.666667e-8 base units, and 1 centiliter per seconds equals 0.00001 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct milliliter per minutes-to-centiliter per seconds factor of 0.00166666666667.
Simple example
1 mL/min × 0.001666666667 = 0.0016666667 cL/s
1 milliliter per minutes = 0.0016666667 centiliter per seconds.
Real-world example
60 mL/min × 0.001666666667 = 0.1 cL/s
60 milliliter per minutes = 0.1 centiliter per seconds.

Reverse conversion: Centiliter per Seconds to Milliliter per Minutes
0.0016666667 cL/s × 600 = 1.00000002 mL/min
0.0016666667 centiliter per seconds = 1.00000002 milliliter per minutes.
milliliter per minutes = centiliter per seconds × 600

Frequently asked questions
How many centiliter per seconds are in 1 milliliter per minutes?
1 milliliter per minutes equals 0.0016666667 centiliter per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert milliliter per minutes to centiliter per seconds?
Multiply the milliliter per minutes value by 0.001666666667. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert centiliter per seconds back to milliliter per minutes?
Use the reverse factor: 1 centiliter per seconds equals 600 milliliter per minutes. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a milliliter per minutes?
Milliliter per Minutes (mL/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a centiliter per seconds?
Centiliter per Seconds (cL/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the milliliter per minutes to centiliter per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both milliliter per minutes and centiliter per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.001666666667 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.
