The relationship between gallons per minute (gpm) and fixture unit is not constant, but varies with the number of fixture units. For example, 1000 FU is equivalent to 220 US gallons per minute (0.014 m 3 /s) while 2000 FU represents only 330 US gallons per minute (0.021 m 3 /s), about 1.5 times the flow rate.
The imperial gill is further divided into five fluid ounces, whereas the US gill is divided into four fluid ounces, meaning that an imperial fluid ounce is 1 / 20 of an imperial pint or 1 / 160 of an imperial gallon, while a US fluid ounce is 1 / 16 of a US pint or 1 / 128 of a US gallon.
