  • Publication number: 20220394841
    Abstract: Provided is a plasma device for applying a cold atmospheric plasma to a surface to be treated, in particular on textiles, leather and/or plastic fibers. The plasma device includes a housing, a plasma source in the housing, and a voltage source in the housing for applying a voltage to the plasma source, wherein the plasma device is configured to enable activation of the plasma source and/Oor to selectively switch the plasma source on only if a distance between the plasma source and the surface to be treated is within a predetermined distance.
