Liter per Second to Liter per Minute (LPS to LPM)
Convert LPS to LPM — Flow Rate converter
One liter per second equals 60 LPM, so to convert liters per second to liters per minute you multiply the value by 60. A liter per second is larger than a liter per minute — going the other way, 1 LPM = 0.01666667 LPS. For example, 10 LPS = 600 LPM and 50 LPS = 3000 LPM.
1 LPS = 60 LPM
Liter per Second to Liter per Minute formula
1 Liter per Second = 60 LPM
Worked examples
- 25 LPS = 1500 LPM
- 100 LPS = 6000 LPM

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 LPS = 60 LPM.
