Convert LPM to SCFH
Direct Conversion
To convert LPM to SCFH, multiply the LPM value by 2.11888. This factor converts liters to cubic feet and minutes to hours.
Quick Examples
10 LPM = 21.19 SCFH. 100 LPM = 211.89 SCFH. 500 LPM = 1059.44 SCFH. These examples assume compatible standard reference conditions.
SCFH = LPM x 2.11888
Liters Per Minute to Standard Cubic Feet Per Hour
Liters Per Minute
Liters per minute, also written as litres per minute, L/min, or LPM, measures metric volumetric flow. It appears on gas analyzers, rotameters, mass-flow controllers, lab instruments, and metric gas equipment.
Standard Cubic Feet Per Hour
Standard cubic feet per hour, written as SCFH, measures gas volume per hour at standard reference conditions. It appears in burner sizing, fuel gas flow, compressed-air specifications, gas meter documentation, and process gas datasheets.
How to Convert LPM to SCFH
Confirm the LPM value is a gas flow value and identify whether it is actual LPM, SLPM, NLPM, or another standard reference.
Confirm the target SCFH reference conditions from the gas meter, burner datasheet, compressor spec, or process requirement.
Multiply LPM by 2.11888 to convert liters per minute into standard cubic feet per hour.
Use the SCFH result for gas-flow comparison, burner sizing, compressed-air documentation, or industrial system checks.
How to Calculate SCFH from LPM
Calculation Method
To calculate SCFH from LPM, first convert liters to cubic feet: 1 L = 0.0353147 ft3. Then convert minutes to hours by multiplying by 60.
Worked Example
100 LPM x 0.0353147 = 3.53147 cubic feet per minute. Then 3.53147 x 60 = 211.89 SCFH.
SCFH from LPM = LPM x 0.0353147 x 60
LPM to SCFH Formula
SCFH = LPM x 2.11888
LPM = SCFH / 2.11888
2.11888 = 0.0353147 cubic feet per liter x 60 minutes per hour
Formula Entities
The LPM to SCFH formula uses liters, cubic feet, minutes, hours, standard flow, gas flow, and airflow conversion.
Standard Airflow Conversion
Standard Airflow Entities
Standard airflow conversion compares gas volume at stated reference conditions. Related entities include SCFH, SCFM, SLPM, NLPM, ACFM, standard pressure, standard temperature, and gas density.
Why Standard Airflow Matters
Gas volume changes with pressure and temperature. Standard airflow units let engineers compare burner flow, compressor capacity, leak rates, process gas demand, and gas meter data on the same basis.
SCFH from LPM
Getting SCFH from LPM
SCFH from LPM is the standard hourly gas-flow result. The value is larger than LPM because it is expressed in cubic feet per hour, not liters per minute.
Result Entities
The result connects measured LPM, standard cubic foot, hourly gas demand, fuel gas, compressed air, process gas, and equipment rating.

SCFH to LPM
Reverse Conversion
SCFH to LPM converts standard cubic feet per hour back to liters per minute. Use this when equipment lists SCFH but the meter, controller, or lab instrument displays LPM.
Reverse Formula
LPM = SCFH / 2.11888. Example: 211.89 SCFH / 2.11888 = 100 LPM.
Reverse entity: standard cubic feet per hour to liters per minute

When to Use Airflow Conversion
Use airflow conversion when comparing compressor capacity, pneumatic tool demand, ventilation gas flow, leak rates, cleanroom purge flow, and process gas demand across metric and US unit systems.
Questions About the LPM to SCFH Calculator
What does the LPM to SCFH calculator do?
The LPM to SCFH calculator converts liters per minute into standard cubic feet per hour. The main entities are LPM, SCFH, liters per minute, standard cubic feet per hour, standard airflow, gas flow, and hourly flow rate.
What is the LPM to SCFH formula?
Use SCFH = LPM x 2.11888 when both values use compatible standard reference conditions. The factor combines liters to cubic feet and minutes to hours.
How do I convert LPM to SCFH?
To convert LPM to SCFH, multiply the LPM value by 2.11888. For example, 100 LPM x 2.11888 = 211.89 SCFH.
How do I calculate SCFH from LPM?
Calculate SCFH from LPM by converting liters to cubic feet and minutes to hours: 1 LPM = 0.0353147 cubic feet per minute, then multiply by 60 to get 2.11888 SCFH.
What is standard airflow conversion?
Standard airflow conversion compares gas flow at standard reference conditions. SCFH, SCFM, SLPM, and NLPM are standard-flow entities, while LPM and CFM can be actual-flow entities unless a standard reference is stated.
Where is LPM to SCFH used for gas flow?
LPM to SCFH is used with gas meters, burner sizing, compressed-air systems, mass-flow controllers, process gas lines, leak testing, fuel gas documentation, and industrial airflow specifications.
How do I convert SCFH to LPM?
Use the reverse formula LPM = SCFH / 2.11888 when the standard reference conditions match.
Is SCFH the same as actual airflow?
No. SCFH is standard cubic feet per hour. Actual airflow depends on the line pressure and temperature, so pressure and temperature correction may be needed before comparing actual LPM with SCFH.
