How to convert rads per second to micrograys per hour
µGy/h = rad/s × 36,000,000Multiply the value in rads per second by 36,000,000. To go the other way, multiply by 2.777777778×10⁻⁸ (or divide by 36,000,000).
A rad per second is larger than a microgray per hour: one rad per second contains 36,000,000 micrograys per hour.

About the units
Rad per second (rad/s)
The rad per second (rad/s) is a unit of radiation (absorbed dose rate) in the centimetre–gram–second (CGS) system. One rad per second equals 0.01 grays per second (Gy/s).
Microgray per hour (µGy/h)
The microgray per hour (µGy/h) is a unit of radiation (absorbed dose rate) in the International System of Units (SI). One microgray per hour equals 2.777777778×10⁻¹⁰ grays per second (Gy/s).
Frequently asked questions
How many micrograys per hour are in one rad per second?
There are 36,000,000 micrograys per hour in one rad per second, and this value is exact by definition.
How do I convert rads per second to micrograys per hour?
Multiply the number of rads per second by 36,000,000. For example, 10 rad/s × 36,000,000 = 360,000,000 µGy/h.
How many rads per second are in one microgray per hour?
One microgray per hour equals 2.777777778×10⁻⁸ rads per second. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 36,000,000.
What is 10 rads per second in micrograys per hour?
10 rad/s = 360,000,000 µGy/h.
Is this rad/s to µGy/h converter accurate?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly in terms of SI units, so the conversion factor is exact; results are shown to 12 significant figures by default and you can change precision in the converter. Calculations run in your browser using the same tested engine that generated this page.
