Is it necessary to provide a “fixed” (relative to guidance) support at one end of the control valve assembly? Which end should it be done at?

Supports are generally required, and supports need to be installed on both sides of the control valve – two supports in total. This is how we design it
The supports at both ends of a control valve assembly with thermal expansion must be one fixed support and one guide support. Personally, I think the fixing frame is installed in the direction of thermal expansion to limit the displacement of the control valve assembly; this is for reference only, and more opinions are welcome.
