Phone suggestions for harsh environments.

[Thurman86]

We have a water company as a client and we are having issues with their phones at their water treatment plant. Due to the indoor water tanks and all of the chemicals in use the environment is very humid. The Yealink phones we normally use are having issues with corrosion and we are looking for something that is more rugged and made for hard environments. Our distributor only has a single cordless option but we are trying to find a desk phone option. Does anyone have any similar experience with something like this and know if a phone that can handle the harsh environment?

This came up a while back, with a SNOM DECT handset being suggested. There may be a desk set available, from someone, but it may not be supported.

This company lists a number of options, but, most appear to be wall phones, and may only have "basic" features. They would probably require manual configuration.

One of the problems with trying to get a "rugged" desk set, is that they usually build these type of devices to withstand physical as well as environmental conditions, which usually means that set is "anchored" to avoid damage/theft, etc.
