I think it's a Model D fuze. (ECIA Modelo D).

Hello Pajarito,

Do you have a diagram of this fuze (to understand operation) ?

Regards

Hi! I made a diagram from an old drawing, though I don't understand the system yet. :tinysmile_cry_t2:

Thanks a lot, nice job. I think impact fuze (SQ/DELAY) with safety ball.

Thank you Pajarito. any idea about the usefulness of the upper pin?

I have no idea. It sticks out when the cap is removed.
