How Heating Oil kg to Liters Converter Works?
The Heating Oil kg to Liters Converter works in 3 steps.
- 1
Enter the mass of heating oil in kilograms (kg).
- 2
Keep 0.86 kg/L for gas oil (red diesel, heating oil EL); US No. 2 fuel oil sits near 0.85 to 0.87 kg/L.
- 3
Read the liters (L) for tank orders and consumption tracking.
Heating Oil kg to Liters Converter Formula
The Heating Oil kg to Liters Converter formula is:
Volume (L) = Mass of heating oil (kg) ÷ 0.86 kg/LThe reverse formula is Mass (kg) = Volume of heating oil (L) × 0.86 kg/L.
Worked example
25 kg (55.12 lb) of heating oil ÷ 0.86 kg/L = 29.07 L (7.679 US gal).
German suppliers sell Heizöl EL in liters at 15 °C, while some suppliers bill by weight. A 3,000 L order of heating oil weighs about 2,580 kg.
