Default Bryant AC

I did an inspection and the house had a Bryant cental air compressor unit that was only about 4 years old but the rating plate was nearly not readable. The model I think was 561cjx042000afaa, but I am not sure. Anyone know how to determine the tonnage of this unit? Thanks

Your SOP's does not allow you to determine capacity of A/C units. Why are you?

The "42" in the model number. 561cjx042000afaa

42/12=3.5
