1 mL/h (milliliters per hour) = 0.001 L/h (liters per hour)

How to Convert Milliliters per Hour to Liters per Hour

The milliliter per hour and liter per hour are both units of flow rate. By definition, 1 liter per hour equals exactly 1000 milliliters per hour. This means to convert milliliters per hour to liters per hour, you divide by 1000.

Formula

liters per hour = milliliters per hour ÷ 1000

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 mL/h to liters per hour:

1
Convert 5 mL/h to liters per hour

We need to convert milliliters per hour to liters per hour

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 L/h = 1000 mL/h, divide by 1000

5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005

Answer

5 mL/h = 0.005 L/h

About These Units

Milliliter per Hour (mL/h)

Milliliters per hour (mL/h) is the standard unit for IV drip rates and syringe pumps. Normal saline maintenance: 80-125 mL/h. Pediatric dosing: 10-50 mL/h. Critical medications may run at 1-10 mL/h. One mL/h equals 24 mL/day.

Liter per Hour (L/h)

Liters per hour (L/h) measures slow flow rates: drip irrigation (2-8 L/h per emitter), IV drips (50-250 mL/h typical), fuel consumption, and chemical dosing. Car fuel consumption at highway speed: 6-10 L/h. Coffee machine: 0.5-2 L/h.
