Need help with Swedish 37mm Patron m/1934

I recently found one of these like the one shown here from the Swedish museum website. The details of their page do not translate well and I would like to know exactly what the projectile type is. I would guess it is a capped armor piercing tracer but the screw-in base is certainly large enough to be a fuze for a base charge. I know there is a normal point fuzed high explosive loading for this case as well. Thanks.
