A fluid power operate linear drive possessing a slab housing ( ) with an elongated cross sectional outline, in which a plurality of receiving spaces ( ) are arranged extending in a common housing plane adjacent to each other in the direction of the longitudinal axis ( ) of the cross section. At one first narrow side ( ) of the housing there is a piston receiving space ( ) extending in the longitudinal direction containing a piston ( ) connected with an outwardly running force output part ( ). At the opposite second narrow housing side ( ) there is an electronic circuitry receiving space ( ) containing electronic valve control circuitry ( ). Between the piston receiving space ( ) and the electronic circuitry receiving space ( ) there is at least one valve receiving space ( ), which contains a control valve means ( ), which is able to be electronically operated and serves for the control of fluid actuation of the piston ( ).
