Is there any way I can remove PRV without deleting or changing the length and orientation of pipes attached. I don't want to change the pipe length, it is happening when am duplicating it to remove PRV.

Here is another approach. This may not be a good option if the pipes have a lot of bends or if this needs to be done in several places in your model. 1. Note the pipe lengths. 2. Right-click on pipe you want to keep (near the junction you want removed) and select Reconnect. 3. Select the node you want that pipe to connect to. 4. Add bends were you want them. To do this, right-click on the pipe, select Bend, then Add Bend. 5. Set the pipe's "Has User Defined Length?" to True and enter the summed length of the original pipes. 6. Delete the replaced pipe and the PRV.
