About these units
Hertz (Hz): The hertz is the SI unit of frequency: one cycle per second.
Revolutions per Minute (rpm): Revolutions per minute (rpm) measures rotational speed of engines, fans, drives and turntables.
Frequently asked questions
How many revolutions per minute are in 1 hertz?
1 hertz (Hz) equals 60 revolutions per minute (rpm).
How do I convert Hz to rpm?
Multiply the value in hertz by 60. For example, 5 Hz × 60 = 300 rpm.
How do I convert revolutions per minute back to hertz?
Multiply by 0.01666666667 (or divide by 60). 1 rpm = 0.01666666667 Hz.
What is a hertz?
The hertz is the SI unit of frequency: one cycle per second.
