How to Convert Grams per Second to Pounds per Minute

To convert grams per second to pounds per minute, multiply the mass flow rate by the following conversion ratio: 0.1322774 pounds per minute/gram per second.

Since one gram per second is equal to 0.1322774 pounds per minute, you can use this simple formula to convert:

pounds per minute = grams per second × 0.1322774

The mass flow rate in pounds per minute is equal to the mass flow rate in grams per second multiplied by 0.1322774.

For example, here's how to convert 5 grams per second to pounds per minute using the formula above.

pounds per minute = (5 g/s × 0.1322774) = 0.6613868 lb/min

How Many Pounds per Minute Are in a Gram per Second?

There are 0.1322774 pounds per minute in a gram per second, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 g/s = 0.1322774 lb/min|1 lb/min = 7.5598728 g/s

Our gram per second to pound per minute calculator automatically converts your mass flow rate measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.

Grams per Second and pounds per minute are both units used to measure mass flow rate. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.

What Is a Gram per Second?

A gram per second is a unit of mass flow rate equal to 1/1,000 of a kilogram per second (0.001 kg/s). Equal to 0.001 kg/s. [1]

The gram per second is classified as a metric and SI-compatible unit of mass flow rate. Grams per Second can be abbreviated as g/s; for example, 1 gram per second can be written as 1 g/s.

When working with grams per second (g/s) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.

In practice, grams per second (g/s) are widely used across fine-tolerance laboratory, analytical, and micro-scale mass flow rate measurements within SI metric workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.

What Is a Pound per Minute?

A pound per minute is a unit of mass flow rate equal to 0.0075599 kilograms per second (kg/s), the base unit for mass flow rate. Equal to 0.00756 kg/s. [2]

The pound per minute is classified as a US customary unit of mass flow rate. Pounds per Minute can be abbreviated as lb/min; for example, 1 pound per minute can be written as 1 lb/min.

When working with pounds per minute (lb/min) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.

In practice, pounds per minute (lb/min) are widely used across fine-tolerance laboratory, analytical, and micro-scale mass flow rate measurements within US customary workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.

When converting mass flow rate between grams per second (g/s) and pounds per minute (lb/min), keep full floating-point precision (1 g/s = 0.1322774 lb/min; 1 lb/min = 7.5598728 g/s) during intermediate calculations and round only the final pound per minute figure to match your instrument tolerance.
