About Converting Imperial pint per Minutes to Gallon per Minutes
Imperial pint per Minutes and Gallon 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. Both are volumetric flow rate units.
Formula
gallon per minutes = imperial pint per minutes × 0.150118740688
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 imperial pint per minutes equals 0.00000947102083333 base units, and 1 gallon per minutes equals 0.0000630901964 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct imperial pint per minutes-to-gallon per minutes factor of 0.150118740688.
Simple example
1 imp pt/min × 0.1501187407 = 0.1501187407 gal/min
1 imperial pint per minutes = 0.1501187407 gallon per minutes.
Real-world example
60 imp pt/min × 0.1501187407 = 9.007124441 gal/min
60 imperial pint per minutes = 9.007124441 gallon per minutes.

What is a imperial pint per minutes?
Imperial pint per Minutes (imp pt/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a gallon per minutes?
Gallon per Minutes (gal/min) measures volumetric flow rate. The standard US unit for pump, plumbing, and irrigation flow-rate specifications. It is classified as a US customary flow-rate unit.
Is the imperial pint per minutes to gallon per minutes conversion exact?
Yes. Both imperial pint per minutes and gallon per minutes are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.1501187407 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.
