This would only be a guess - 1.5 tons - Based on the last two numbers being 18.

This does not work with the newer systems, they use less power.

ie. Seer 13 with RLA=21 is a 3.5 ton

Give that man a cigar, it is an early 90's Bryant unit of 17,800 btu capacity, at 12,000 btu per ton that makes it a 1 1/2 ton unit.
