Gallon (UK) per Minute to Liter per Second (imp gal/min to LPS)
Convert imp gal/min to LPS — Flow Rate converter
One gallon (UK) per minute equals 0.07576819 LPS, so to convert gallons (UK) per minute to liters per second you multiply the value by 0.07576819. A gallon (UK) per minute is smaller than a liter per second — going the other way, 1 LPS = 13.198151 imp gal/min. For example, 10 imp gal/min = 0.7576819 LPS and 50 imp gal/min = 3.788409 LPS.
1 imp gal/min = 0.07576819 LPS

Which gallon, and which trade
The single most expensive mistake in flow conversion is the gallon. A US liquid gallon is 3.785411784 litres; an imperial gallon is 4.54609 litres. US GPM and imperial GPM differ by about 20%, and pump datasheets frequently do not say which one they mean. Check the manufacturer's country of origin before trusting a GPM figure.
Different trades default to different units for the same physical quantity: HVAC and compressed air work in CFM, plumbing and pumps in GPM or LPM, and process and water engineering in m³/h or L/s. A specification that mixes them is usually quoting different equipment, not different flows. On this page, 1 imp gal/min = 0.07576819 LPS.
