What is the conversion factor from mL/min to mL/h?

The conversion factor is 60; 1 milliliter per minute equals 60 milliliters per hour.

Why would I convert mL/min to mL/h?

Converting from milliliters per minute to per hour helps in monitoring slow and continuous fluid delivery over longer periods, especially in medical and laboratory settings.

Can timing inaccuracies affect the conversion?

Yes, small errors in timing or flow rate measurement can be magnified when converting to hourly rates, so consistent timing is important.

What Is This Tool?

This converter tool allows you to seamlessly convert flow rate measurements from milliliters per minute (mL/min) to milliliters per hour (mL/h). It is designed for applications requiring accurate monitoring and control of fluid flow over different time intervals.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the flow rate value in milliliters per minute (mL/min)
Select the original unit as milliliter/minute (mL/min)
Select the target unit as milliliter/hour (mL/h)
Click the convert button to see the equivalent flow rate in mL/h

Key Features

Converts volumetric flow rates between mL/min and mL/h
Supports flow measurements used in medical, laboratory, and process control settings
Provides quick and easy calculation based on a fixed conversion factor
Browser-based tool requiring no installation
Suitable for precise dosing and infusion rate adjustments

Examples

2 mL/min converts to 120 mL/h
0.5 mL/min converts to 30 mL/h

Common Use Cases

Setting infusion rates for intravenous or enteral drug delivery in healthcare
Controlling flow in microfluidic experiments and cell culture in laboratories
Managing reagent additions in analytical instruments and chemical reactors
Small-scale dosing in environmental monitoring and process control

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure consistent and accurate timing when measuring flow rates
Verify steady, fluctuation-free flow during measurement intervals
Use this conversion to switch between shorter and longer time scales for better monitoring
Cross-check converted values especially when dealing with very low flow rates

Limitations

Accuracy depends on precise and stable timing during measurements
Minor errors per minute can amplify in hourly conversions
Conversion assumes constant flow with no variation during the measurement period

Key Terminology

Milliliter per minute (mL/min): A volumetric flow rate unit representing one milliliter of fluid passing a fixed point every minute, used for small, controlled flows.
Milliliter per hour (mL/h): A volumetric flow rate unit representing one milliliter of fluid transported or dispensed each hour, indicating slow, continuous flow.
Volumetric Flow Rate: The volume of fluid passing through a point per unit time, often measured in milliliters per minute or hour in precise fluid delivery contexts.
