Definitions

  • Kilograms per hour is the usual rating for industrial feed, steam and dosing equipment.
  • Pounds per hour is the same rating in US practice; one pound per hour is 0.453 592 kg/h.
  • Every unit here is defined against the kg/s.
  • Every unit in the menus is exact by definition, so the only rounding on this page is the one you choose for the display.

How it works

Every value is converted into kilogram per seconds and then back out into the unit you asked for. One route covers every pairing in the menus, so an unusual combination is no less accurate than a common one, and adding a unit affects only that unit.

Both boxes are live. Whichever one you last typed in is the source, changing either menu recalculates straight away, and Swap exchanges the units and the values so the number you are reading stays where you are looking.

Display precision sets a maximum number of significant figures and trims trailing zeroes, so it changes what you see and never what was calculated. The editable box always holds a plain number at full working precision, so you can carry on from either side.

Common questions this answers: how many pounds per hour in a kilogram per hour (2.20462), how many kilograms per hour in a pound per hour (0.453592), and what 100 kg/h is in pounds per hour (220.462 lb/h).
