Abstract: A fluid control valve, which relates to fluid control valves in which a pilot passage is opened or closed as a pilot flow is detected in the said pilot passage by means of a limit orifice mechanism located at the middle of the flow and a valve spool is switched by the differential pressure produced in the fluid passing the said limit orifice mechanism so as to effect a switch-over between unloaded and loaded states, and incorporates, as the said valve spool, a first valve spool effecting the switching action based on the differential pressure of the fluid passing the limit orifice mechanism and a second valve spool arranged in series with the first valve spool effecting a switching action being effected by the fluid pressure so that a load check function may also be provided.
