Need to know the spec for MOS varistor replacement

The varistor fried so much that I cant read any numbers. I was hoping someone can suggest a replacement. I posted photos here but this is a verbal description:

"Hi @adaboy ,

How did the varister blow? Was the blender plugged into 240V AC?

You could try a ERZV10D241 ZNR varister and check if that holds. Search online for ERZV10D241 to find suppliers that suit you best

It’s specs are 150VAC, 200VDC 25A The maximum current for the blender is 9.33A (1100W @ 120VAC)

There is a ERZV07D241 but its current rating is only 10A and that may be a bit close and it may be operating at the top end of its rating which is never good for the long term.

You need to connect the blender via a suitable stepdown transformer if connecting it to 240VAC ;-)"
