An actuation chamber (2) provided in a housing (1) is communicatively connected to a supply and discharge port (6) via a pressurized oil supply and discharge passage (7). A valve case (11) of a sequence valve (10) is attached to an attachment hole (8) provided at an intermediate portion of the supply and discharge passage (7). A valve seat (25) is provided in a cylindrical hole (20) provided in the valve case (11). A valve member (26) is biased leftward toward the valve seat (25) by a pressure-setting spring (31). When pressure of pressurized oil supplied to a first portion of the supply and discharge passage (7) which is close to the supply and discharge port (6) exceeds a set pressure, the pressurized oil moves the valve member (26) rightward for valve opening, against the pressure-setting spring (31).

A fluid control valve is made compact by changing the shape of a communication passage within the fluid control valve. The fluid control valve includes a valve casing, an electric valve disposed in the valve casing, and a relief valve disposed in the valve casing. The valve casing includes: a main passage that has a first valve port sealed by the electric valve; a bypass passage for bypassing the first valve port; a first valve chamber in fluid communication with the downstream side of the first valve port and housing the electric valve; and a second valve chamber in fluid communication with the upstream side of the first valve port and housing the relief valve. The bypass passage includes a communication passage configured to allow the first valve chamber and the second valve chamber to fluidly communicate with each other. The communication passage opens to a first side surface of the first valve chamber and/or into a side surface of the second valve chamber.
