About Converting Pint per Seconds to Gallon per Seconds
Pint per Seconds and Gallon 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
gallon per seconds = pint per seconds × 0.125
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 pint per seconds equals 0.000473176473 base units, and 1 gallon per seconds equals 0.003785411784 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct pint per seconds-to-gallon per seconds factor of 0.125.
Simple example
1 pt/s × 0.125 = 0.125 gal/s
1 pint per seconds = 0.125 gallon per seconds.
Real-world example
60 pt/s × 0.125 = 7.5 gal/s
60 pint per seconds = 7.5 gallon per seconds.

Frequently asked questions
How many gallon per seconds are in 1 pint per seconds?
1 pint per seconds equals 0.125 gallon per seconds, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert pint per seconds to gallon per seconds?
Multiply the pint per seconds value by 0.125. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert gallon per seconds back to pint per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 gallon per seconds equals 8 pint per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a pint per seconds?
Pint per Seconds (pt/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a gallon per seconds?
Gallon per Seconds (gal/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the pint per seconds to gallon per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both pint per seconds and gallon per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.125 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.
