How to Convert Cubic Centimeter per Minute to Liter per Minute
- 1 cm³/min = 0.001 L/min
- 1 L/min = 1000 cm³/min
- Example: convert 15 cm³/min to L/min: 15 cm³/min = 15 × 0.001 L/min = 0.015 L/min
Formula
L/min = cm³/min ÷ 1000
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 cm³/min = 10⁻⁶ m³ ÷ 60 s
- 1 L/min = 10⁻³ m³ ÷ 60 s
- 1 cm³/min = 1.666666666667 × 10⁻⁸ m³/s ÷ 0.00001666666666667 m³/s per L/min = 0.001 L/min
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Cubic Centimeter per Minute definition: cubic centimeter per minute; Liter per Minute definition: liter per minute.
Worked examples
- A reading of 5 cm³/min converts to 0.005 L/min.
5 cm³/min × 0.001 = 0.005 L/min - A value of 200 cm³/min is 0.2 L/min.
200 cm³/min × 0.001 = 0.2 L/min

Where it's used
Cubic Centimeters per Minute are used for chromatography carrier-gas and HPLC flows, while liters per minute appear in medical oxygen and anaesthesia gas flow. Both measure volumetric flow rate (volume per unit time), so the conversion is a fixed factor.

Frequently asked questions
How many liters per minute are in 1 cubic centimeter per minute?
1 cm³/min = 0.001 L/min.
How do I convert cubic centimeters per minute to liters per minute?
Multiply the value in cm³/min by 0.001, or divide it by 1000. For example, 15 cm³/min × 0.001 = 0.015 L/min.
Is the cm³/min to L/min conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly, and 1 cm³/min is exactly 0.001 L/min.
