  • Publication number: 20220339577
    Abstract: A filter unit for an air cleaning device includes an odor filter configured for odor neutralization and embodied as a device for plasma generation. The odor filter includes an air-permeable high-voltage electrode and an air-permeable counter electrode arranged behind one another in a direction of flow of air. Each of the air-permeable high-voltage electrode and the air-permeable counter electrode is formed by a panel element.
