Entladener

Entladener is a German noun derived from the verb entladen, meaning to discharge or empty. It can describe a person or a device that performs the action of discharging or emptying. The term is not common in contemporary German terminology; more typical are the forms Entlader (the person or device that unloads) and Entladung (the discharge itself) or Entladungsgerät (a discharge device).

In technical usage, entladener may appear in older or specialized texts as a generic label for something or someone that has undergone discharge. However, in most modern contexts the clearer and more specific terms are preferred. For example, in electrical engineering one speaks of Entladung (discharge) and uses devices such as Entladegerät or Entladesystem to describe equipment that initiates or facilitates discharge, rather than applying entladener as a standard label.

In industrial and logistical settings, discharge of liquids or bulk materials is commonly described with verbs and nouns such as entladen, Entladung, or Entladesystem. A person who unloads cargo is typically referred to as a Ladearbeiter or Entlader rather than Entladener.

Etymology and usage notes: entladener follows the standard agent noun formation with the suffix -er from entladen. Its meaning is broadly "one who discharges" but the form is infrequently used in everyday or technical German, where more precise terms are preferred.
