Spanish term or phrase: salidas

Context is how to store a certain medication:
Gurdelo a 25 grados C; se permiten salidas a 15-30 grados C.

I know what "salidas" means, but for the life of me I can't find a neat way to say the phrase in my own native tongue! It is a back translation, if that helps.
TIA

variation, but should probably be temperature range.

Explanation:
I agree that "salidas" could be variations or deviations, but with a recommended storage temperature of 25� (centigrade, I assume), the figure 15�-30� looks more like the range of tolerated temperature. Since it's a back translation, I'd say it was an unfortunate word choice UNLESS the tolerated temperature range is actually -15� to 60�.

sacar ...

Explanation:
In the unlikely event that you are talking about vaccines, they need to be with a certain range and then the health worker is allowed to ..."sacar las vacunas en un rango de temperaturas entre XX and XXC"
Maybe this could apply to these medicines

10 hrs

Store at 15-30� C, preferably 25�.

Explanation:
Yes, it's still a little awkward, but that's about as efficient as I could come up with before breakfast.

I agree with the word Deviation in this case.
Sorry! I couldn't be a better help!
