About these units

Dram (dr)

The fluid dram is a small historical unit equal to 1/8 of a US fluid ounce or 3.6967 mL (US), with slightly different imperial values. It originated in apothecaries and early pharmaceutical texts, where drams measured potent liquid medicines, tinctures, and extracts. In daily life, drams appeared in old cocktail recipes, medicinal syrups, and household remedies. However, the inconsistency between US and UK drams, along with the rise of the metric system, pushed it out of modern use. Today, the dram survives mostly in whiskey culture—where a "dram" informally means a small pour, not a precise measurement—and in historical studies of medicine.

Kiloliter (kL)

A kiloliter equals 1,000 liters, identical to 1 cubic meter, and is used in water management, municipal planning, agriculture, and commercial storage. Utility companies measure household water usage in kiloliters. Irrigation requirements, swimming pool volumes, and cistern capacities are also commonly expressed in this unit. Its equivalence to the cubic meter gives it flexibility—metric engineers may prefer m³, while public-facing documentation may use kL for clarity.
