Temperature determination device

A temperature determination device, comprising:

• a non-invasive temperature sensor;
• a mount;
• and
• at least one connection sensor, the at least one connection sensor comprising one or more proximity sensors;
• wherein the non-invasive temperature sensor is configured to be connected to a process device via the mount,
• wherein the non-invasive temperature sensor is configured to acquire temperature data,
• wherein the at least one connection sensor is configured to acquire a connection status data relating to connection of the non-invasive temperature sensor to the process device, wherein the connection status data comprises proximity data,
• wherein the one or more proximity sensors are configured to determine a first proximity between the mount and the process device and to determine a second proximity between the mount and the non-invasive temperature sensor,
• wherein the proximity data comprises the first proximity between the mount and the process device and the second proximity between the mount and the non-invasive temperature sensor, and
• wherein the temperature determination device is configured to utilize the temperature data and the connection status data with respect to a determination of a temperature of the process device, and wherein utilization of the connection status data with respect to the determination of the temperature of the process device comprises a comparison of the proximity data against baseline proximity data, and wherein the baseline proximity data relates to a correct position of the non-invasive temperature sensor with respect to the mount.
