What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms flow measurements from milliliters per second to ounces (UK) per hour, helping users express small volumetric flows in terms of mass throughput. It is designed for precise dosing, calibration, and formulation tasks in scientific and industrial settings.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Input the flow rate value in milliliters per second (mL/s)
-
Select the output unit as ounce (UK) per hour (oz (UK)/h)
-
Click the convert button to see the equivalent flow rate
-
Use the result to assist in dosing, calibration, or flow analysis tasks

Suitable for laboratory, pharmaceutical, and specialty manufacturing uses
-
Supports precision flow measurement for microfluidics and dosing
-
Browser-based and easy to use with instant results
Examples
-
0.5 milliliter/second equals 63.3511 ounce (UK)/hour
-
2 milliliter/second equals 253.4046 ounce (UK)/hour
Common Use Cases
-
Setting and reporting flow rates on syringe pumps and microfluidic devices
-
Calibrating precision laboratory dispensers and liquid-handling equipment
-
Low-rate dosing of reagents and chemicals in pharmaceutical manufacturing
-
Micro-dosing in perfumery and flavoring industries
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure fluid density is known to relate volume flow to mass flow accurately
-
Use sensitive instruments for measuring very small flow rates
-
Verify measurement units carefully before and after conversion
-
Apply this conversion for precise control in specialized scientific workflows
Limitations
-
Conversion assumes fluid density sufficient to correlate volume and mass flows
-
Ounce (UK)/hour is a mass-based unit, while milliliter/second measures volume
-
Accuracy depends on density; differences may affect practical results
-
Sensitive instruments are required for very small flow rates in both units
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does milliliter per second measure?
-
Milliliter per second measures the volumetric flow rate, quantifying how much fluid passes a point each second.
-
Why convert milliliters per second to ounce (UK) per hour?
-
Converting allows expressing flow in mass throughput, which is useful for precision dosing and calibration tasks.
-
Does fluid density affect the conversion?
-
Yes, since one unit measures volume and the other mass, fluid density is needed to apply the conversion accurately.
Key Terminology
-
Milliliter per second (mL/s)
-
A metric unit indicating the volume of fluid passing a point each second.
-
Ounce (UK) per hour (oz (UK)/h)
-
A mass flow rate denoting one UK avoirdupois ounce passing per hour.
-
Volumetric flow rate
-
The measure of volume of fluid flowing through a point over time.
-
Mass flow rate
-
The measurement of mass of fluid passing a point over time.
